"It's different here. It just is. We usually take it for granted because we're accustomed to it and we think every place is just like this. It isn't. Everyone at Carolina understands how difficult it is to get here, and how even a program like women's soccer that has so many national championship trophies they use them as doorstops deserves support and love for making it this far. It is much, much easier to be average. To get to that moment when a trophy is at stake requires canceling dinners with friends and going to bed early instead of hitting Franklin Street and early mornings in the weight room when no one is out on campus ... Women's soccer sophomore Emily Murphy sobbed after Monday's game because it was a devastating loss, and then spotted a young fan who was likewise in tears. And Murphy wrapped her in a hug and, through her tears and forgetting that we were supposed to be consoling her, said, "I'm so sorry we didn't win." So, yes, these are without doubt the bad times. And they are like nowhere else." Read on from Adam Lucas about last night's NCAA championship loss on GoHeels.com: https://bit.ly/3Y0bOEy Photo via UNC Women's Soccer
