Against No. 21 Florida State in Tallahassee, Fla., Morrell exploded less than 20 minutes into the second half, scoring two goals within the three minutes of each other.
The back-to-back goals prompted a 4-0 UNC scoring run in a nine-minute span of the second half that helped lead the Tar Heels to an 5-1 win.
Four days later against Virginia, the sophomore forward from Plymouth, Mich., sparked a rally in which UNC scored twice in the last 10 minutes for a come-from-behind 2-1 win.
Morrell's game-winning goal on a 40-yard shot, which came with less than seven minutes left in the game, made the difference.
