Excellent well-illustrated hsitory of The University of North Carolina women's soccer program which is one of the most successful sport programs in the history of college athletics. In its first 21 years, Carolina has won 16 national championships and played in 20 national Final Fours.
Under coach Anson Dorrance, who began the varsity program in 1979, the Tar Heels have staked a claim as one of the great dynasties in intercollegiate athletics history.
Heading into the 2000 season, the Tar Heels have posted a 466-19-11 record. Carolina won its first national championship, the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) title, in 1981 and has since won NCAA championships in 1982, 1983, 1984, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1997 and 1999.

Carolina's women's soccer program has won 15 NCAA titles, more NCAA Division I women's national championships than any other Division I women's athletic sport program in the nation.
