Xylina McDaniel brings optimism, enthusiasm to game
Posted Jan 10, 2014
When the North Carolina women’s basketball team started sluggishly, haltingly, in its 79-70 win Tuesday night against N.C. State, forward Xylina McDaniel told her teammates to keep their heads up — push through the turnovers, the fruitless offensive possessions. That’s what an upperclassman should say, McDaniel said. Except she’s not an upperclassman, merely a sophomore.
