The Towson women's soccer team will have their time to shine.

On Monday the team earned the program's first appearance in an NCAA tournament.

The Tigers defeated Monmouth 2 to 1 in the Coastal Athletic Association to earn a spot.

The team will start with a challenge, playing nationally ranked University of North Carolina.

But players say they're not daunted.

"Its good to be the underdog sometimes and I know that's where we're predicted but we have the abilities and players and heart to win," one player said.

The Tiger take on UNC this Friday at 6:00 p.m.
