Women’s World Cup: USA a contender, with six Tar Heels on roster

Posted Jun 6, 2015
After a year of qualifying, two head coaching changes, a round of roster second-guessing, a lawsuit over venues and some injury concerns, the U.S. Women’s National Team will begin its pursuit of a third World Cup championship. At least one former area player, UNC alum Meghan Klingenberg, will be in the starting lineup for the U.S. in its opening match at 7:30 p.m. Monday in Winnipeg, Manitoba. (Charlotte Observer)
