    UNC knocks off Minnesota, falls to Missouri

    DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. -- No. 24 North Carolina scored its first top-10 win under head coach Coleman Scott when the Tar Heels knocked off No. 8 Minnesota 25-16 Friday as part of the 2017 South Beach Duals. Carolina got pins from A.C. Headlee and Danny Chaid among six match wins to score the upset in the first dual of the day. No. 4 Troy Heilmann added a major decision against the Golden Gophers for the Tar Heels, who fell to No. 4 Missouri later in the afternoon by a 27-9 decision.

    Headlee's third-period pin of No. 10 Tommy Thorn at 141 pounds highlighted a run of four straight victories that gave Carolina an early advantage. Headlee trailed in the match before pinning Thorn from a defensive position early in the third to swing the momentum to UNC.

    After Heilmann dominated Hunter Marko at 149 with an 18-6 major, Kennedy Monday upset No. 12 Jake Short 3-2 at 157 to give the Tar Heels a 16-6 lead in the dual. Zach Sherman also scored a top-10 win for Carolina during that stretch, handling No. 8 Mitchell McKee 5-2 at 133.

    Minnesota responded with consecutive wins at the next three weights to tie the dual, but Chaid's second-period pin of Bobby Steveson put the underdogs in a dominant position. Cory Daniel then secured the dual with a 3-2 decision over Rylee Streifel at heavyweight.

    Chaid had the marquee win of the second dual for Carolina, stunning No. 2 Willie Miklus of Missouri. After the match was tied 1-1, Miklus was hit with a second stall warning in sudden victory to give Chaid the victory. James Szymanski and Daniel also won for the Tar Heels, who saw the Tigers run off seven straight victories, including five of the bonus-point variety.

    UNC will wrap up the South Beach Duals Saturday starting at 11 a.m. with a pair of duals against SIU-Edwardsville and Michigan State.
