Soccer to face No. 1 N. Carolina

The Texas A&M women’s
soccer team, in only its second
season, faces its toughest test
to date when they take on
eight-time defending national
champion North Carolina and
20th-ranked Maryland in two
games this weekend in Dallas.
“North Carolina and Mary
land are probably two of the
oest coached teams in the coun
try, “ Texas A&M head coach
Gerald Guerrieri said. “I just
hope our players will be ready
to meet the challenge of playing
to their potential.”
The Aggies, 2-0, will be led
Dn offense by their strong mid-
fielding corps, led by junior
midfielder Corie Hammers.
Hammers is A&M’s scoring
leader in the young season,
with three goals and one assist.
The defense, however, might be
the key to the Aggies’ success
this weekend.
“We have really good defend
ers,” senior keeper Michelle
Crofts said. “They played well
against New Mexico and Cente
nary without giving them a
chance to take a shot. If they
can keep up the pressure, high
pressure, we can do it.”
The Aggies are coming off a
strong performance in the
Plano Labor Day Invitational
last weekend. Senior Anna
Whitehead sees the Carolina
game as a challenge, and is
looking to meet that challenge
head on.
“It’s going to be the game of
a lifetime,” Whitehead said.
“They’re (North Carolina) just
legends, and we just need to
forget about that part and play
our hearts out.”
North Carolina, winner of
11 of the 12 NCAA women’s
soccer titles, comes into Fri
day’s game with a 83-match
winning streak. The Tar
Heels, arguably one of the
greatest collegiate sports’ dy
nasties, have lost once in the
past eight years, an overtime
loss to the University of Con
necticut in 1990.
Anson Dorrance, in his 16th
season as the Tar Heel head
coach, boasts a career record
of 300-8-9. The Tar Heels fea
ture three-time All-America
midfielder Tisha Venturini,
senior goal keeper Shelley
Finger and sophomore forward
Debbie Keller, the team’s lead
ing scorer.
The Maryland Terrapins, 1 -1,
started the season with a 2-0
loss to the Tar Heels. They re
turn eight starters from the
team that finished last year at
13-5-2. April Heinrichs, a UNC
graduate, leads the Terrapins in
her fourth season as head coach.
“Back when it was a non
scholarship team, we had noth
ing,” Whitehead said. “I’ve
come all the way with the pro
gram and never dreamed of
this when I first started play
ing here. It is a dream come
true to play North Carolina.
We’re going to go into it with
nothing to lose.”
