From Fetzer To Finley: Arguably, The Sweetest Of Them All

Posted Dec 8, 2008
I will own up to the fact I am an emotionally sensitive person. Certain old movies make me cry. I'm not ashamed to admit that. But shortly after 4 p.m. on Sunday, December 7, 2008, even I felt goose bumps in a way that I have rarely ever experienced. The final of the 2008 Women's College Cup had just concluded and Coach Anson Dorrance's Tar Heels had won their 19th NCAA title in the past 27 seasons. Ho hum you think. Hardly. (Tar Heel Blue)
