The Syracuse Orange softball team had struggled throughout the ACC schedule. Heading into the final weekend, Syracuse needed to sweep the North Carolina Tar Heels to keep their season alive. The Orange did just that winning 3-1 on Friday, 6-1 on Saturday and closing the series out with a dominant 9-1 win on Sunday. This gave Syracuse a record of 24-20 on the season, 7-15 in ACC play.
