CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Trae Starnes tossed a career high five innings while Dominic Pilolli delivered the knockout punch in the top of the tenth as 15th-ranked Charlotte baseball took down North Carolina 4-1 in 10 innings Tuesday night. Charlotte scored their 30th win of the season by breaking a scoreless game open in the extra inning.
