NCAA Div. I Women: North Carolina Shows Its (Tar) Heels to the Rest of ACC Field, Wins 3rd Straight Title

COLLEGE PARK, MD., Feb. 23. IT was deja vu all over again for Coach Frank Comfort's Lady Tar Heels.

Picking up where they left off last season, the 'Heels showed their collective heels to the field en route to their third-consecutive Atlantic Coast Conference women's championships hee this evening with a 686.5-632 win over runners-up University of Virginia.

Carolina has now won the conference title a record 10 times in the 23-year history of the meet, but Comfort said his team's real goal is to crack the Top 10 at next month's NCAA Division 1 Championships at the University of Texas the third weekend of March.
