Milo Garvanian leads the way for UNC with two goals and one assist for five points, including scoring the game-winner against South Florida. Key White and Hilli Goldhar have also found the back of the net once so far this year with the latter recording his first goal as a Tar Heel against FIU.

Kieran Richards paces the Bucs with a team-leading four goals, nine points and eight shots on goal while Cole Hunter owns a .837 save percentage between the posts.
Tuesday’s matchup will be the sixth meeting in program history between the two programs as the Tar Heels look to extend the all-time series record, which they lead at 4-1. UNC and ETSU last faced each other in the 2018 season opener with Carolina posting a 1-0 victory.
