Men’s soccer tightens defense after rout BY CHRIS HEMPSON STAFF WRITER The North Carolina men’s soccer team learned firsthand this week end that the ball doesn’t always bounce in its favor. Following a 4-1 beatdown of Liberty last Tuesday, the squad headed to Boston College on Friday with an undefeated record. Again, UNC’s game ended in a 4-1 decision. But this time the Tar Heels (5-1-1,1-1 ACC) were the ones humbled in a lopsided loss. Junior Eddie Ababio prevented a scoreless effort, netting the team’s lone goal on a collective nine shots. But one defeat doesn’t define or damper a season, as coach Elmar Bolowich well knows. “Sometimes you have games [ msgHT Js”jv or. 9 -■ nP fa gfc jj|/ Byi BJI [,f>9 Bsfef A critically acdaimed multi*me(diaexperience, Freedom SinJpß features an all-star cast of musicians and oniy-in-America storylinS of music that has been banned, censored or has sounded a callfcj social change.

For one, the fact that for the sec ond conference game in a row, the Tar Heels faced a 1-0 deficit at the half. And further, both opponents’ first goals came with less than 10 minutes remaining in the half. Though formations and defen sive alignments can be mixed and changed to accommodate the opposition, these recurring morale killers could be a cause for concern News Forward Eddie Ababio leads the team with five goals this year. No other UNC player has more than two. for a team looking to compete for the conference title this year. “You have to establish your self in a game, and you cannot be outworked by your opponent,” Bolowich said. “We need to start taking the initiative and battling for domi nance.” With four home games coming up on the schedule, the Tar Heels will have plenty of chances to work Jp* - nisi |p £ jP Echinacea flowers serve as a food source for a honeybees, whose population has declined during the past year.

Bolowich said the team will use practices to fine-tune those loose ends. One of the main focuses will be playing better defense. Lately UNC has allowed opposing teams too much space to operate within, Bolowich said. Instead of being ready to antici pate, he thinks the team is con stantly in reaction mode. “I would like to see more aggres siveness from our team,” Bolowich said. “These are things that we have to reiterate.” Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.
