No. 2 Tar Heel Women Rout Coastal Carolina, 95-44

Posted Dec 14, 2008
Rashanda McCants was glad to be playing basketball, even if she had to wear a mask to protect her broken nose. After a 10-day break from competition for exams, McCants and No. 2 North Carolina blew off the rust with a 95-44 victory over Coastal Carolina on Saturday. "It's good for us to have some time off to rest and heal from injuries, but it's good to have some games, too," McCants said. (Tar Heel Blue)
