Earlier this year, the North Carolina Tar Heels women’s lacrosse team brought home the school’s third national championship, all of which have come since 2013. They have become one of the preeminent programs in the sport, and a title contender year in and year out. It should be no surprise that because of that, several Tar Heel players have gone on to success beyond the college ranks.
Over the weekend, the finals of the 2022 Women’s World Championship were held in Maryland. A USA roster loaded with Tar Heels and coached by UNC’s Jenny Levy brought home the gold, defeating Canada 11-8 in the championship game.
