North Carolina defeated IU 4-0 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament in dominating fashion Friday night, eliminating the Hoosiers from NCAA championship contention.
No. 5 North Carolina (18-4) is the biggest test IU (15-6-1) has faced all season. The Tar Heels have outscored opponents 44-12 and have only given up five goals at home all year.
The senior midfielder’s 56 career points and 24 career goals are both sixth most all-time at IU. Her three hat tricks are the most of any Hoosier.
With Ellis’ goal, IU (15-6-1) defeated DePaul (13-6-2) 1-0 at Jerry Yeagley Field to advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament where it will face top-seeded North Carolina in Chapel Hill, N.C.
It will be IU’s (14-6-1) first appearance in the NCAA Tournament since 2007. It will be the first time any of the players have gone to the big dance.
IU set single season school records in goals (42) and assists (44) during its 2013 campaign.

A 3-1 loss to Nebraska in Lincoln on Friday assured IU of the No. 4 seed in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament on Wednesday in Champaign, Ill.
The Hoosiers (13-4-1, 6-4) can finish, at worst, the fourth seed in the conference regardless of Friday’s results. The combination of a win against Nebraska (14-3-1, 9-1) and Ohio State beating Michigan would give IU the No. 3 seed.
Players and coaches have been tweeting “#12ISEABOVE” since the initial Big Ten preseason coaches’ poll listed the Hoosiers as 12th in conference — dead last.
The goal would prove to be the lone goal of the game in a 1-0 Hoosier win. The three points they got for the win guarantees IU (13-4-1, 6-4) will finish at least fourth in the Big Ten standings.
