Athens, Georgia (2014)

One of the biggest wins in program history happened on this date, May 19, 2014, when Carolina took down Stanford, the defending national champions, by a 4-3 margin in the semifinals of the NCAA Team Championship.

"We know that to become a championship team, we need to go through teams like Stanford," said head coach Brian Kalbas. "It's a big accomplishment for our team and I'm just really excited to keep playing."

A spot in the finals came down to the singles match on court one between the Tar Heels' top ranked Jamie Loeb and Stanford's third-ranked Kristie Ahn.
