No. 3 Northwestern lost to No. 1 North Carolina 12-8 in Sunday’s national championship bout. The Wildcats scored the opening goal by way of redshirt sophomore attacker Abby LoCascio, but never regained the lead after North Carolina’s Chloe Humphrey evened the score a few minutes later. 

Despite the loss, graduate student goalkeeper Delaney Sweitzer set a school record with 17 saves in one game.
