A brief history of UNC's storied athletic programs and their national titles

Posted Jul 1, 2021
UNC is nicknamed the University of National Champions for a reason. Since 1977, every four-year student at North Carolina has seen the Tar Heels win at least one national championship, beginning with the 1981 men's lacrosse title. UNC has won 46 NCAA team titles and is probably best known for its six-time NCAA champion men's basketball team. (Daily Tar Heel)
