Sabato Stays Hot in 14-8 Loss To Notre Dame

CHAPEL HILL – For the second time in as many days, North Carolina erased a six-run Notre Dame advantage, but once again fell short 14-8 to close out the first weekend of ACC play.

The Fighting Irish jumped out of the gates quickly and took a 5-1 lead after two innings. After Notre Dame posted a pair of runs in the top of the third inning to push its lead to 7-1, North Carolina responded with one run in the third and five runs in the fourth frame to tie the game at seven.

Notre Dame answered with a trio of runs in the fifth inning to retake the lead.
