The speedy McCann was UNC's second-leading scorer last season with 14 goals. Toepel will move from the sweeper position to the midfield, where she'll be expected to add some offensive firepower. Meredith Keller, who started all 22 games last season en route to being named the ACC Rookie of the Year, and junior Carrie Lingo, an All-ACC pick, also help anchor the midfield. Junior forward Abbey Woolley, who also has been active in the U.S. national team program, is a playmaker to keep an eye on after dishing out 11 assists last season in 13 games before a season-ending head injury. The Tar Heels scored 57 goals on the season, allowing 23 from opponents.
Defense is equally strong.
The Lady Monarchs scored 101 goals, allowing just 36 and posting eight shutouts. She netted five goals and added 12 assists in 1999. Information are applicable to this site.
