Tar Heels' Lacrosse Final Four return a product of 23 years of 'buildup'

Posted May 25, 2016
The UNC men's lacrosse team makes its first Final Four appearance in 23 years Saturday. For the Tar Heels, this trip to NCAA Championship weekend is a culmination of all the times the team got close, but failed to advance past the first or second round of the tournament in the past. “It’s a buildup of a lot of things and it started my freshman year,” senior captain Jake Matthai said.
