UNC has strong presence in Women's World Cup

Posted Jul 3, 2011
UNC has had its share of alums star on the U.S. women's national team. Now, two more Tar Heels are in Germany seeking to make their mark at the Women's World Cup. Heather O'Reilly and Tobin Heath won a total of five NCAA championships while playing at UNC, and now both are on a U.S. squad looking to push past the disappointment of semifinal losses in the last two Women's World Cups.
