Courtney Banghart’s blueprint has UNC exceeding expectations ahead of big challenge at No. 2 Texas

After losing 70% of UNC's offense from last season, Coach Courtney Banghart’s women's basketball team was picked to finish third in the ACC. Now her No. 11 Tar Heels are the highest-ranked team in the league and getting plenty of national attention. That progress gets a major test Thursday when UNC visits No. 2 Texas in the ACC/SEC Challenge. (Tar Heel Tribune)
