Denver advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals by beating Albany in the first round 19-14 last Saturday night in Denver. TAR HEELS IN THE HOOSIER STATE: This year’s quarterfinal site in Indianapolis marks the first time the NCAA has selected a neutral site not along the East Coast to host games in the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Championship. Sunday’s game will be the seventh time the Tar Heels have played a game in the state of Indiana and the second time it has played within the Indianapolis city limits. Carolina defeated Butler 16-6 on April 14, 1996 at the Butler Bowl in Indianapolis. Carolina has played five games at Notre Dame during the 1996, 2004, 2006, 2009 and 2013 seasons. Earlier this year, the Heels played the Fighting Irish in South Bend, falling 10-9 in triple overtime on March 2. CAROLINA IN THE NCAA TOURNMENT: Carolina is making its 28th overall appearance and seventh successive appearance in the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Championship in 2013. The Tar Heels have advanced to the NCAA Tournament in each of the first five years of Coach Joe Breschi’s tenure at Carolina. UNC NCAA Tournament Facts: • This is North Carolina’s 28th all-time tournament appearance. The only schools with more appearances are Johns Hopkins with 41, Maryland with 36, Virginia with 35 and Syracuse with 32. • Carolina has an all-time record of 28-23 in the NCAA Tournament. Carolina ranks seventh in all-time NCAA Tournament wins. • UNC’s #5 seed is its highest since it was a #4 seed in the 2010 tournament. • Carolina is 16-5 in NCAA Tournament games in Chapel Hill after last Saturday’s win over Lehigh. • The Tar Heels are 6-10 in NCAA Tournament games played at neutral sites. • The Tar Heels are 8-5 all-time as a #5 seed. This is their first #5 seed since 1987. • Carolina is 7-5 in NCAA first round matches after beating Lehigh. • UNC is 12-10 in NCAA Tournament quarterfinal matches but it has lost its last six appearances in the NCAA quarterfinals. Carolina’s last win in a final 8 matchup was May 22, 1993 when the Heels beat Army 14-5 at Kenan Stadium in Chapel Hill. • The Tar Heels are 3-4 in NCAA Tournament matches under head coach Joe Breschi. Including his tenure at Ohio State, his teams are 4-7 in NCAA Tournament play. One of his losses at Ohio State came to Carolina in the 2004 NCAA first round at Fetzer Field. HEAD COACH JOE BRESCHI: Joe Breschi is now in his fifth season as the head coach at his alma mater. Breschi has led the Tar Heels to double-digit win totals and NCAA Tournament bids in each of his five seasons in Chapel Hill. He earned his 150th career coaching victory when Carolina beat Virginia in the ACC Tournament championship match on April 28 of this year. He was named ACC Coach of the Year in both 2010 and 2013. Breschi Coaching Facts: • 59-24 in five seasons at UNC (71.1) • 151-87 in 16 seasons overall (63.4) • 6-9 in ACC regular-season games • 4-4 in ACC Tournament games • 3-4 in NCAA Tournament games at UNC; 4-7 in NCAA Tournament games overall • 14-9 in one-goal games at UNC • 32-21 versus ranked teams at UNC; 27-3 versus unranked teams at UNC • 48-8 versus non-conference teams at UNC • 36-7 in home games at UNC CAROLINA VERSUS DENVER: The Tar Heels lead the all-time series against Denver 8-2. All those meetings took place after the Pioneers elevated their program to NCAA Division I status. The Tar Heels and the Pioneers played each other nine times in regular-season meetings between 1999 and 2009 including every year from 2002-09. UNC won eight of those nine games, falling at Denver in 2006 by an 11-8 score. The Tar Heels and the Pioneers have faced each once in the post season and it was a classic matchup in last season’s NCAA first round in Chapel Hill when the Pioneers defeated the eighth-seeded Tar Heels 16-14. The box score of that game can be found at this link. CAROLINA TO APPEAR ON ESPN FAMILY OF NETWORKS : Sunday’s NCAA quarterfinal game between Denver and North Carolina will be televised nationally on ESPNU. The two NCAA quarterfinal games on Saturday from College Park, Md., are being telecast on ESPN2 while the two games in Indianapolis on Sunday are on ESPNU. Eamon McAnaney will serve as the play-by-play announcer for Sunday’s game while Quint Kessenich and Paul Carcaterra will serve as color analysts. This will be the 10th appearance for the Tar Heels on the ESPN Family of Networks during the 2013 season. UNC is 8-1 so far this season while appearing on ESPN nationally-produced games. HOLMAN NAMED UNC’S SECOND TEWAARATON FINALIST: North Carolina senior attackman Marcus Holman, UNC's all-time leading scorer, is amongst the 2013 Tewaaraton Trophy men's finalists for the 2013 season. Finalists were announced on May 9. Five men and five women were selected as finalists and will be invited to Washington, D.C. for the 13th annual Tewaaraton Award Ceremony, May 30 at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of the American Indian. The five men's finalists are University of North Carolina attackman Marcus Holman, Syracuse University midfielder JoJo Marasco, Cornell University attackman Rob Pannell, Princeton University midfielder Tom Schreiber and University at Albany attackman Lyle Thompson. The five women's finalists are University of Maryland attacker Alex Aust, University of North Carolina midfielder Kara Cannizzaro, Syracuse University attacker Alyssa Murray, University of Florida goalie Mikey Meagher and University of Maryland midfielder Katie Schwarzmann. With Holman and Cannizzaro the University of North Carolina joins Syracuse University as the only school with finalists in both categories. Holman is only the second Tar Heel men's player to be named a finalist, joining attackman Jed Prossner in 2004. TAR HEELS CAPTURE FIRST ACC TITLE IN 17 YEARS: While winning the ACC Tournament title last month did not guarantee the Tar Heels an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, Carolina’s conference championship victory over Virginia on April 28 did mark a milestone victory for the program. It was Carolina’s 12th official ACC championship dating back to 1954 and its first since 1996. It also marked the first tournament championship in the Joe Breschi coaching era. Carolina had won ACC regular-season championships in 2003, 2010 and 2013 in the intervening period since 1996 but had garnered no tournament titles. With a 19-18 semifinal win over Duke and a 16-13 championship game victory over Virginia, North Carolina improved its all-time record to 19-17 in ACC Tournament games dating back to the initial conference tournament in 1989. Carolina has now won the conference tournament eight times. The Tar Heels’ championships came in 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996 and 2013. Carolina also won the ACC title in 1981, 1982, 1985 and 1988 when it was based on regular-season results. Carolina has a tournament record above .500 despite losing 12 successive ACC Tournament semifinal games between 1987 and 2008. In Coach Joe Breschi’s five years as head coach (2009-13), Carolina is 4-4 in ACC Tournament games. Carolina has played in the tournament championship game in three of Coach Joe Breschi’s first five seasons as head coach (2009, 2012, 2013). CAROLINA’S PROBABLE STARTERS: North Carolina’s depth chart for the Denver game on Sunday will look something like the following (subject to change). Attack: Marcus Holman, Sr.

The Tewaaraton Foundation will announce the award’s 12th annual winners May 31 at the Tewaaraton Award Ceremony in Washington, D.C., at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Indian.

Senior midfielder C.J. Costabile (New Fairfield, Conn.) picked up 15 groundballs and won 14-of-20 face offs as No. 3 Duke advanced to the final four with a convincing 17-6 win over Colgate, marking the program’s sixth consecutive championship weekend appearance. With two ground balls in Saturday’s semifinal game against Maryland, Costabile will become the nation’s ground ball leader. Junior attackman Mike Sawyer (Waxhaw, N.C.) scored his 51st goal of the season in Loyola’s 10-9 victory over Denver as the top-seeded Greyhounds advanced to their first NCAA final four since 1998, where they will face No. 4 Notre Dame.
