Her dream was to play soccer at UNC. Once she got a lacrosse stick for Christmas, her reality became playing lacrosse at UNC. But the transition was anything but easy for Marie McCool including self-doubt, comparisons to other players and wondering if she was worthy. Her willingness to open up to her coach helped her develop a plan for growth leading to an amazing career being considered as perhaps the most decorated player in UNC history. Most importantly was her ability to develop a sense of confidence, pure enjoyment and love for her teammates.
