North Carolina won their 23rd National Championship with a 1-0 win over Wake Forest. It was their first National Championship since 2012. UNC had a terrific season with a 22-5 record under head coach Damon Nahas. Nahas spent the 2024 season with the interim tag before being named the head coach right before the National Championship game. Olivia Thomas scored the lone goal off a free kick to earn the Tar Heels the trophy.
