Men’s basketball and women’s soccer may be among Carolina’s best-known national championship earners, but the varsity teams aren’t the only athletic programs regularly competing for titles.

Since 2012, Carolina’s Darkside club ultimate frisbee team has advanced to the national finals each year, winning national championships in 2015 and 2018.

Darkside is just one of four ultimate frisbee clubs at Carolina, including two for men and two for women. In addition to in-state rivals like NC State and UNC-Wilmington, Darkside plays teams from around the country and Canada.
