Youth movement for Heels
Posted Mar 5, 2009
UNC women's basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell has watched her young guards mature over the past three weeks. With consistent play and assertive tongues, sophomores Italee Lucas and Cetera DeGraffenreid, as well as freshman She'la White, have provided the leadership the Tar Heels needed after losing three straight games in January. "You would think that would come from our juniors and seniors," Hatchell said.
