In its first 26 years, Carolina has won 18 nation- al championships and played in 23 of 24 nation- al final fours sanctioned by the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) and National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Under head coach Anson Dorrance, who assumed the coaching reins when the program was elevated to varsity status in 1979, the Tar Heels have staked a claim as one of the great dynasties in intercollegiate athletics history, the greatest in the opinion of Sports Illustrated On Campus. Heading into the 2005 season, the Tar Heels have posted a 579-26-15 overall record in the history of the sport. Carolina won the first official national championship, the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) title, in 1981 and has since won a total of 17 of 23 NCAA championships with titles coming in 1982, 1983, 1984, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1997, 1999, The 1981 Carolina women’s soccer team, in only its third varsity year, got the championship fever 2000 and 2003.
