RALEIGH - The UNC Tar Heel’s soccer team just won a national championship and Thursday they were honored by the Governor. Coach Anson Dorrance and the women from his soccer squad were the guests at the Executive Mansion in Raleigh.
Governor Mike Easley met with the team just four days after they won their 18th national championship.
Governor Easley commented, “They lost five seniors and seven freshman stepped up. There’s something special about the UNC the tradition, the dynasty that they have created and we’re showing that we can continue in that,” he said.
Calling the women’s soccer team a dynasty isn’t a stretch. Carolina has won 18 of the 25 women’s championship. They have never gone more than three years without winning a title.
