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.
