Haggerty, a junior from Cary, made a career-best seven saves - several of the spectacular variety - as the Tar Heels shut out Wake Forest, the nation's top offense, 1-0. He finished with a 0.59 goals against average and 21 saves in the NCAA Tournament to earn a spot on the College Cup All-Tournament Team.

Shriver, a senior from Clearwater, Fla., joined Haggerty with all-tourney honors after scoring the game-winner in the semis against Wake. Shriver scored on an 8-yard header in the fourth minute to lead UNC past the Demon Deacons. Shriver, who finished with four points on a goal and two assists in the postseason, notched 14 goals and 33 points this season for the highest scoring output by a Tar Heel since 2002.
