“We are very excited about the 2022 Tar Heels class,” said Dorrance. “Like the class before them, they will challenge them to play early and contribute to all four lines: goalkeeper, defense, midfield and front runner. The future is bright.”
The newest group of tar heels was given a No. 3 national ranking by TopDrawerSoccer.com, the highest in the ACC and the highest among all programs on the East Coast.
UNC’s nine-player class includes four forwards, three defenders, one midfielder and one goalkeeper. Three of the signatories: Dahlias, Dellaperuta and Herr were each appointed to the ENCL All-America team last season.
Below are brief biographies of all nine of the upcoming tar heels highlighting the highlights of their amateur football careers.
