Seniors deliver for UNC

Posted May 5, 2010
North Carolina's Mike Cavasinni and Ryan Graepel have struggled at the plate at times this season, and the Tar Heels' only seniors had the lowest batting averages in the starting lineup entering Tuesday's game against Elon. But the veterans found their swings against the Phoenix, as Cavasinni recorded four hits and Graepel hit his second home run in three games to help UNC crush Elon 17-7 at Boshamer Stadium.
