TODAY’S GAME – Notre Dame (25-0-1) faces North Carolina (26-1-0) in Sunday’s game at SAS Soccer Park in Cary, N.C., with the Irish looking to join the Tar Heels as the only teams ever to win three or more NCAA Division women’s soccer titles … ND and UNC’s 51-1-1 combined record marks the most wins between the finalists in the 25-year history of the D-I women’s soccer championship (Florida entered the 1998 title game 25-1-0 while UNC was 24-0-0) … UNC has defeated Notre Dame in three previous NCAA title games(5-0 in 1994, 1-0/OT in 1996, 2-0 in 1999) but the Irish won their previous two NCAA championships in the state of North Carolina, besting Portland in 1995 at UNC’s Fetzer Field (1-0/OT, after a 1-0 win over UNC in the semifinals) and then winning at SAS Soccer Park in 2004 (4-3 in PKs; 1-1 through OT).
