Nov. 18,1995
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.
Freshman forward Cindy Parlow scored two goals and one assist
to lead number one ranked and undefeated North Carolina to a 4-0
win over Vanderbilt in the second round of the 1995 NCAA Division
Women's Soccer Tournament Saturday night before a crowd of 3,870
at Fetzer Field. Parlow, the Atlantic Coast Conference Rookie of
the Year, opened the scoring just 9:25 into the game and added a
second goal 28 seconds into the second half. Parlow then assisted
on Meg Uritus's goal at 57:31 which gave the Tar Heels a 3-0 lead.
Carolina, now 24-0, advances to the national quarterfinals for the
15th consecutive year. The Tar Heels have won nine straight NCAA
titles and 13 national crowns in the last 14 years. The win Saturday
was the 30th consecutive NCAA Tournament victory for UNC and improved
Carolina's NCAA record to 41-1. The Tar Heels will play Santa
Clara, which defeated Virginia, 1-0 Saturday night in Charlottesville,
Va. UNC beat the Broncos, 2-0, earlier this year. The UNC-Santa Clara
game will be played on Saturday, November 25, at 1 p.m. at Fetzer
Field. Parlow gave Carolina a 1-0 at the 9:25 mark as she took a
pass from Debbie Keller and beat Vanderbilt goalie Christy Barringer
from 15 yards out. The lead stayed at 1-0 through intermission,
despite Carolina having an 8-1 edge in shots on goal. Freshman
midfielder Beth Sheppard set up the second UNC goal with a
crossing pass which Parlow headed into the goal. It was her
19th score of the season. Uritus scored at 57:31 off a Robin Confer
corner kick which Parlow flicked backward with her head. Sophomore
defender Staci Wilson added the final goal at 60:42 on a direct kick
from 20 yards. Carolina outshot the Commodores, 21-2. Barringer mad
10 saves, while UNC goalie Tracy Noonan did not record a save.
Vanderbilt ends its season with a 14-7 record.
