#15 BC Field Hockey Defeats #4 North Carolina

Chestnut Hill, MA - The #15 Boston College Field Hockey team defeated ACC opponent #4 University of North Carolina Tar Heels on Friday afternoon at the Newton Campus Field Hockey Field 2-0.

After a scoreless first period where the Eagles only put one shot on goal, the floodgates opened and senior forward Bob Dirks tallied two goals in less than two minutes to put the Eagles on top. The first goal resulted when senior defender Kelley Smith broke up the Tar Heels offensive corner and took off towards center field. She passed to senior forward Bob Dirks dodged goalie Brianna O'Donnell when she came out to play the ball and put it home for the Eagles first tally of the match.
