Under Athletic Director Bubba Cunningham, UNC-Chapel Hill women won this year's Capital One Cup.
Maybe the legendary UNC basketball coach Dean Smith predicted this would happen one day. ?This is a women?s soccer school,? he once said during an interview with Football News Magazine.
Well, turns out that the UNC women?s soccer squad?s victory in the 2012-13 championship, along with lacrosse and indoor tennis titles, propelled the UNC women?s athletic program to the top of the Capital One Cup standings.
The Cup is awarded annually to each of the best men?s and women?s Division I college athletics programs in the country. Points toward the Capital One Cup are earned and tracked throughout the year based on final standings of NCAA Championships and final official coaches? polls.
UNC women?s athletics finished with 140 points, besting No. 2 Stanford?s 129.5.
On the men?s side, Duke University grabbed the fifth spot, with a total of 82 points. The UCLA Bruins topped that list with 92 points.
Capital One will award a combined $400,000 in student-athlete scholarships and the Capital One Cup trophy to the two winning schools at the ESPY awards in July.
