Cash, apology settle UNC-CH soccer suit
Posted Jan 15, 2008
The sexual harassment lawsuit against UNC women's soccer coach Anson Dorrance never made it to a jury, but it gained national attention and helped draw boundaries between coaches and players. After nearly a decade, the case was settled Monday, with the university agreeing to pay former player Melissa Jennings $385,000 and Dorrance issuing an apology to all his players.
