Elina Aarnisalo’s connection with UNC Women's Basketball coach Courtney Banghart goes back years. Banghart relentlessly pursued the dynamic 5-10 guard from Finland, calling her once a week for two years before losing her recruiting battle with UCLA. Given a second chance, Banghart secured Aarnisalo's commitment from the transfer portal. (Tar Heel Tribune)
