Convert him, of course.
Entering the 2002 season, UNC men's soccer coach Elmar Bolowich had two gaping holes to fill on his backline, so he moved Logan Pause from his midfield position of the last two seasons, to a central back this year.
But down 2-1 in the second half against No. 2 Wake Forest Saturday, Bolowich moved Pause up to attack as the Tar Heels tried to even the score.
"Logan can play multiple positions," Bolowich said. "He has an uncanny ability of reading the game and anticipating. I wanted to make the switch to spark a little more offense. So, switching him with (Ray) Fumo was, to me, the logical choice."
When the chance to move up front came, Pause's eyes got a little wider, he said.
"My eyes always get wide, even in practice, if I have a chance to run up top or in the midfield, I have a great time."
Pause made Bolowich's move look brilliant when he scored the game-tying goal in the 77th minute.
Although he's still learning the position, Pause has discovered one very certain thing about defense.
"That's one thing I've learned -- defense is definitely a mentality," he said. "It's all attitude. It's about adapting to reading the game. I'm not a one-v-one player or a defensive player, so I'm having to read the game and play smart to make up for that."
