Women's Soccer Seizes 19th NCAA Title

Posted Dec 8, 2008
Casey Nogueira pounded home a pair of "world class" goals in the second half Sunday afternoon as fourth-ranked North Carolina rallied past top-ranked Notre Dame 2-1 in the championship game of the 2008 NCAA Women's College Cup. Carolina had to weather a Notre Dame goal in the first 16 seconds of the match to earn its 100th victory in the 27-year history of the NCAA Tournament and in the process it garnered its 19th NCAA title and its 20th national championship overall.
