UNC STUNS NO.1 UVA IN SOCCER

Virginia, the top-ranked men's soccer team in the nation, was stunned 5-1 Sunday in Chapel Hill, N.C., by the University of North Carolina.

Four second-half goals helped the No.7 Tar Heels cruise to victory.

Virginia (6-2 overall, 2-1 ACC) has not suffered a worse defeat since losing 4-0 to Clemson in the 1980 season. It was the first time UVa lost to the Tar Heels in 11 meetings.

With the victory, UNC (6-2, 1-1) has defeated the nation's top- and second-ranked teams in September. The Tar Heels beat Indiana 2-1 earlier this month in Bloomington, Ind.
