All are former North Carolina athletes who have returned to coach, but only one has been a three-time national champion, four-time ACC champion, two-time All American and an integral part of a perfect 24-0 season.
Funny that the athlete who racked up all those accolades is also the least recognizable name on that list. Who is Jana Withrow, anyway?
She was the goalie for the UNC field hockey team from 1994-97 and was recently named to the ACC's 50th anniversary field hockey team.
But if you had asked her about the field hockey greats back before she began high school, she wouldn't have known who they were either. Withrow started out wanting to be a soccer player.
"I actually started playing field hockey because (my high school) didn't have a women's soccer team," Withrow said. "It was just something to do in the fall. It was either that or volleyball, and I figured, 'I'm not tall enough for volleyball, so I'll try field hockey.' At the time, the men's soccer coach didn't really want women on the team, so I just tried field hockey and ended up being decent at it."
That could be one of the great understatements of all time, coming from a woman who played on the U.S. national team and still holds the UNC and ACC records for career shutouts.
It was no surprise, though, when Withrow committed to UNC before even starting her senior year at DuPont High School in Delaware. She always had a soft spot for the Tar Heels, and the fact they were a nationally recognized field hockey force only sealed her decision.
"My mom's from Wilmington, so she's been a huge Tar Heel fan her entire life, so I'd grown up knowing about the Tar Heels," Withrow said. "As soon as I found out that Carolina had a great field hockey program, it was definitely my top choice, because academically it's a top public school, so it was just a great fit."
UNC coach Karen Shelton said she knew she wanted Withrow to be a Tar Heel when she got her first glimpse of Withrow in the goal.
