For the second consecutive year, the North Carolina Tar Heels are in the College Cup semifinals. This year though, the team is looking to make it back to the College Cup finals for the first time since 2011.
The Tar Heels enter the semifinals having earned points in seven of their last eight matches, with wins against Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, and Old Dominion. Specifically, in the College Cup tournament, North Carolina has outscored opponents 6-2, facing North Carolina-Wilmington, SMU, and the Cinderella Fordham. The win against UNCW was extra sweet, as the Tar Heels got revenge for an early season loss to the Seahawks.
