Mid Iii Baseball
The athletic teams for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) are The North Carolina Tar Heels. The name Tar Heel is also often referred to individuals from the state of North Carolina, the Tar Heel State. Being the flagship institution of the University of North Carolina system, Chapel Hill is referred to as "University of North Carolina" for the purposes of the National Collegiate Athletic Association.
The University of North Carolina has won 38 team national championships in five different sports, 9th all-time, and 51 individual national championships. The women's soccer team has won 19 national championships since 1981; the men's soccer team won the national championship in 2001; the women's basketball team in 1994; the men's basketball team in 1924, 1957, 1982, 1993, and 2005; the men's lacrosse team in 1982, 1986, and 1991; the women's field hockey team in 1989, 1995, 1996, and 1997; the women's team handball team in 2004; and the men's team handball team in 2004, 2005, and 2006. The men's team won the 2004 ECAC National Invitational Collegiate Regatta in eight categories. The men's baseball team is also a perennial power, and in 2006 made it to the championship round of the College World Series.
In 1994, the University's athletic programs won the Sears Directors Cup that is awarded for growing performance in NCAA competition.
Notable graduates from the athletic programs include Michael Jordan, James Worthy, Mia Hamm, Davis Love III, Eddie Pope, Roy Williams, B.J. Surhoff, Jeff Reed, Andrew Miller, Daniel Bard and Marion Jones.
UNC's most intense rivalries are with Duke, North Carolina State, and Wake Forest (i.e. Tobacco Road). In recent years, the UNC-Duke basketball series has attracted the most attention. UNC also has a rivalry with Virginia.
Overall, the Tar Heels have won five men's basketball titles: four NCAA championships and one Helms title.
In 1924 the team went 26-0 in an era with no official national championship. In the mid-1930s, the school was awarded a national championship by the Helms Athletic Foundation, an independent organization founded in Los Angeles.
Under coach Frank McGuire, the team won its first NCAA championship in 1957. After McGuire left, legendary coach Dean Smith established the team in college basketball. While coaching for UNC for over thirty years, Smith set the record for the most wins of any men's college basketball head coach, a record broken in 2007 by Bob Knight. Under Smith, the Tar Heels won two national championships and had numerous talented players come through the program. More recently, the Tar Heels won the national championship in 2005 under coach Roy Williams.
The North Carolina football program has had periods of excellence and several great players pass through the program, including Jeff Saturday, Lawrence Taylor, William Fuller, Greg Ellis, Dre Bly, and Julius Peppers.
The program took a step toward possible fame by hiring former Miami Hurricanes football head coach Butch Davis for the 2007 season, and vowing that they would fund the football program to the same extent that their dominant Men's and Women's basketball teams are funded. On February 7, 2007, Butch Davis and staff inked one of the top recruiting classes in North Carolina football history, earning national recognition from the recruiting industry's most influential websites, including Scout.com, Rivals.com and ESPN.com. This class includes some of the nation's most highly sought after recruits including Marvin Austin, Greg Little, Dwight Jones, Mike Paulus and Tydreke Powell.
North Carolina introduced women's soccer in 1979 as a club sport. At the time, Anson Dorrance coached the men's soccer team and, at the invitation of the university, took on the duties of the women's team. Women's soccer lacked any national organization, but Dorrance and University of Colorado coach Chris Lidstone appealed the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) to run a national championship. In 1981, the Lady Tar Heels won the second AIAW championship.
In 1982, the NCAA took over responsibility for women's college soccer. Since then, the Lady Tar Heels have conquered the sport, winning championship after championship and placing more players on end of year lists than any other Division One program.
