Inclement weather on Friday night forced the scheduled men’s soccer showdown between UNC and Duke in Durham to be postponed until Sunday.

The teams attempted to wait out the thunderstorms for nearly an hour on Friday, before the decision was made to move the match back by a couple days.

Sunday’s contest is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.

This is the regular season finale for the Tar Heels, who have gone 6-4-3 overall when including results from both the fall and spring.
