TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Despite Kenna Raye Dark throwing a gem in the circle, the North Carolina softball team dropped its series finale at No. 16 Florida State, 2-1, on Sunday afternoon at the Seminole Softball Complex.
Â

Â
Dark (8-6) went the distance, throwing her 11th complete game of the season, allowing just four hits, one earned run, a walk and recording four strikeouts.Â
Â
Eight different Tar Heels recorded a hit in the game, with Sanaa Thompson and Carlie Myrtle leading Carolina at the plate with a pair of hits each. Thompson was the only Tar Heel with an extra base hit, tallying a double in the seventh. Â

Destiny Middleton had the sole Tar Heel RBI of the game, making it a one-run game with two outs in the top of the seventh.Â
Â
Skyler Brooks swiped two bases, bringing her career total to 55. She now ranks ninth in program history in stolen bases, passing Breanna Brown (54) who played from 2006-2009.Â
