Cila-bration: Devils shutout Heels Schedule changes see mixed reaction

By MIKE COREY The Chronicle

In a game that marked a turning point for the men’s soccer program, the Blue Devils were nothing short of fantastic as they dismissed No. 13 North Carolina (6-3, 1-1 in the ACC) Saturday evening, sending the Tar Heels tromping home with a 1-0 setback in front of 4,800 raucous fans in Koskinen Stadium.

As University officials prepare to discuss a possible overhaul of the undergraduate academic master schedule, students are reacting favorably to the idea of alleviating midday overcrowding.

portunities. The tactic, highlighted by the stellar play of goalie Justin Trowbridge, helped to shutout the Tar Heels for only the second time this season and gave Duke its first win against UNC since 1999. “It’s North Carolina-Duke: It doesn’t get much better than that,” defender Matt Ahumada said.

Students agreed facilities were too hectic and crowded at midday, but also expressed reservations about sacrificing their scheduling preferences. “It’s impossible to catch a bus to East at 12:40 [p.m.]; it’s impossible to grab a quick lunch.... Life’s a lot more difficult at those times,” said sophomore Peter Jannuzzi. A number of students cited bus delays as the main issue. “The problem with all the people who have class at the same time is that the bus is a nightmare,” sophomore Caroline Haubold said. “I could watch two or three buses roll by without being able to get on.”

JORDAN CILA scored the only and winning goal as the men’s soccer team bested the defending national champions.
