CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – The No. 24 USC women's soccer team fell on the road at No. 3 North Carolina on Sunday, dropping a 4-0 decision.

USC splits its Carolina road trip after beating No. 4 Duke on Thursday. The Trojans are now 2-1 on the year.

North Carolina scored once in the first half and then got two quick goals midway through the second period and finally a late penalty to put things away. Ally Sentnor picked up the opening goal on a long first-half strike and Evelyn Shores scored two in the second half for the home team. Tori Dellaperuta converted a penalty kick in the 88th minute.

On a steamy day in North Carolina, USC struggled to maintain possession and unlock the Tar Heel defense.

GOALS
13' – UNC: Ally Sentnor (unassisted) – Sentnor carried the ball up the left side and then cut towards the center near the top of the area and fired a shot that went off the bottom of the crossbar and in.

63' – UNC: Evelyn Shores (assisted by Kate Faasse) – Faasse sent a centering pass into the area and Shores sent a one-touch shot inside the far post.

66' – UNC: Evelyn Shores (assisted by Melina Rebimas, Tori Dellaperuta) – Rebimas and Dellaperuta had a couple quick passes near the top of the area, sliding it to Shores who fired a ball off the hands of the USC keeper.

88' – UNC: Tori Dellaperuta (penalty kick) – Dellaperuta drew a foul down near the endline in the area and converted the PK.
