Heather O'Reilly could lead U.S. past Japan again

Posted Jul 17, 2011
When the U.S. women's soccer team faces off against Japan in the World Cup final today, many more people will be watching than when the two teams played in Cary on May 18. But the U.S. squad will be hoping for similar results. A key for the U.S. could be UNC alum Heather O'Reilly. She was involved in both scoring plays during the match in May.
