A Premier Facility A host of numerous ACC Tournament, NCAA Tournament and Final Four games over its illustrious history, Fetzer Field has long been one of the the nation’s most storied soccer facilities. With the 1999 relocation of the UNC soccer offices to the McCaskill Soccer Center adjacent to Fetzer Field, Carolina enjoys perhaps the finest overall facility in all of college soccer. Fetzer Field, which boasts a capacity of 5,025 fans, is the home to UNC’s men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s lacrosse and men’s and women’s outdoor track and field teams. The dedication of the McCaskill Soccer Center on April 11, 1999, solidified Fetzer Field’s elite status among soccer facilities. The Center is a two-story structure that houses locker rooms for the men’s and women’s soccer teams as well as a team meeting room, coaches’ offices and a large conference room. Total costs on the project were $1.8 million. Located in the heart of the Carolina campus, Fetzer Field was originally completed in 1935 as a Works Projects Administration program. Since 1947, the Tar Heel men have won nearly 75 percent of their games played there, going 354-110-30 (.747) in 62 seasons. The facility has been home not only to soccer NCAA and ACC Championships, but also to several ACC Track and Field Championships, the N.C. High School Athletic Association Track and Field Championships, the National Junior Olympics and men’s lacrosse NCAA and ACC Tournaments. In 1996, the facility was the home training site for the United States Track and Field Team as it prepared for the Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta. In 2001, it was home to the Carolina Courage of the WUSA. History Fetzer Field, named for former Tar Heel athletic director and track and field head coach Bob Fetzer, was the only home the North Carolina men’s soccer program knew from the team’s first varsity game in 2001 & 2011 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS 1947 through the entirety of the 1988 campaign. When Fetzer was being renovated, the Tar Heels played all their 1989 home games at Finley Field near the University golf course, as well as the first eight home matches of 1990. Carolina then returned home to Fetzer on Oct. 21, 1990, and celebrated the homecoming with a stunning 2-0 upset of a No. 10-ranked NC State Wolfpack team. On Nov. 10, 1990, Carolina played its first night game ever at Fetzer Field, beating Wake Forest 2-1 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Night games are now a regular part of the Carolina men’s soccer schedule at Fetzer, and the Tar Heels will play nearly every home game on ESPN3. Facility Upgrades The 1989 campaign was the only year in which Carolina did not play any games at Fetzer Field since the program was founded in 1947. The facility underwent a complete renovation beginning in May 1989. The project was completed in October 1990, and the facility was officially rededicated on April 6, 1991, during a men’s lacrosse game between No. 1-ranked Carolina and No. 2-ranked Johns Hopkins. At the same time, the track area of the facility was renamed the Irwin Belk Track. The renovation project itself included resurfacing and widening of the track which encircles the soccer and lacrosse field, upgrading the grandstand seating with new aluminum bleachers and the building of permanent gatehouses. In addition, the press box at Fetzer Field was enclosed and air conditioned. A new matrix scoreboard was also installed that is complete with a message board. On Oct. 21, 1990, the North Carolina men’s soccer team officially returned home to a newly renovated Robert Allison Fetzer Field at the University of North Carolina. After nearly two years worth of remodeling and refurbishing at the legendary Fetzer grounds, the Tar Heels were back home once again.
Dan Sears 2012 NORTH CAROLINA MEN’S SOCCER McCaskill Soccer Center The state-of-the-art McCaskill Soccer Center on the University of North Carolina campus was dedicated on the morning of Sunday, April 11, 1999. “I really think this completes our wonderful facility here,” head coach Elmar Bolowich said at the dedication. “We’ve had a great stadium, and now we’ve got a great facility to go along with it. This will benefit the program in the years to come.” The facility quickly paid dividends, including the 2001 NCAA title. UNC was ranked No. 1 in the nation for much of the season in 2001 and went 12-0-0 at Fetzer Field that season for the best home record in school history. Fetzer hosted three NCAA tournament games in 2000, 2001 and 2005 and one each in 2002-04 and 2006. In 2008, UNC went 10-2-0 at home en route to a national runner-up finish. In 2009, UNC went 12-1-1 at home and turned in another winning record in 2010 going 8-1-3. The 2011 National Championship season saw the Tar Heels go 13-0-2 at home and set a pair of attendance records. The 6,600-square-foot McCaskill Soccer Center, named after Norman and Carol McCaskill, is located adjacent to Fetzer Field on the UNC campus. “I think this building is a reflection of how much our alumni care about soccer at North Carolina,” UNC women’s soccer coach Anson Dorrance said. “We have a rabid following, and I think our fans will love this building.” The facility is a two-story structure, which houses locker rooms for the varsity men’s and women’s soccer teams as well as a team meeting room on the first floor. The second floor houses offices for both sports as well as a large conference room which can be used by all of the Tar Heels’ Olympic sports teams. The building was designed by NBBJ Architects of Research Triangle Park and was constructed by Resolute Building Company of Chapel Hill. Total costs of the project were $1.8 million.
