Northwestern Wildcats women's lacrosse
[3] The Wildcats began playing in 1982 and enjoyed success early, appearing in the NCAA tournament five times before budget cuts forced the team to disband in 1993.Northwestern hired former Maryland player Kelly Amonte Hiller to be the head coach when the university revived the team in 2002.Her methods proved successful, however, and the team improved its record every year from its inception until 2005, when the Wildcats went undefeated and won their first national title.The streak ended in 2010 when the team lost to Maryland in a championship game that set the attendance record for a women's lacrosse match in the United States.When the team visited the White House after winning their first championship, they created a minor fashion scandal when some members wore flip-flops.
