    BALTIMORE, MD. - North Carolina midfielder Ben Hunt had a career day for the Tar Heels this weekend against Notre Dame, scoring five goals (his previous career best was three) and adding an assist to help his team to a 8-6 win over the Irish. That earned the junior midfielder from Arnold, Md., honors as the Nike Division I Men's Lacrosse Player of the Week as named by Inside Lacrosse Magazine.

    The win improved North Carolina's record to 4-0 on the year and helped it edge even higher in this week's Nike/IL Media Poll, to No. 3 in the country behind ACC compatriots Duke and Virginia. The Tar Heels have their biggest test of the season on Saturday when they make the short trip to face arch-rival and top-ranked Duke.
