CHAPEL HILL, N.C. Freshman Sabrina Lukasik scored her first collegiate goal for NC State in a 4-1 setback at No. 7 North Carolina Thursday in ACC women’s soccer action at a soggy Fetzer Field.
The Wolfpack trailed 3-0 when Lukasik tallied an unassisted goal at the 70:24 mark of the match. A failed clear by the Tar Heels led to an empty netter for the Chesapeake, Va., native.
Yael Averbuch scored twice to pace North Carolina (14-3, 8-1 ACC), while Casey Nogueira and Robyn Gayle each pushed across one goal apiece for the Tar Heels.
Nogueira opened the scoring with her team-leading 10th marker of the season at the 23:54 mark of the first half. Averbuch added her first of the evening just before halftime to give UNC a 2-0 advantage at intermission.
Gayle struck for her goal just five minutes into the second half at the 50:50 mark.
After Lukasik found the back of the net for NC State (5-8-3, 0-7-1 ACC), Averbuch took a pass from Whitney Engen and scored at the 83:24 mark to cap the evening festivities.
The Tar Heels had 22 shots in the match, while NC State had three.
NC State steps out of conference to host Francis Marion on Sunday afternoon at 2 pm at Method Road.
