After UNC women's basketball loss vs. Duke, Alyssa Ustby passes torch to Lanie Grant

Posted Mar 31, 2025
At the end of UNC Women's Basketball's Sweet 16 loss Friday, freshman Lanie Grant tossed the ball to senior Alyssa Ustby to take the final shot. As the buzzer sounded, reality set in: Ustby was leaving the program that she helped build the past five years. The 17-year-old who passed her the ball? That’s who Ustby is passing the Tar Heel torch to. (USA Today)
