Tar Heel Trailblazers: Rochelle Small-Toney
Posted Feb 2, 2018
The thought of playing for the Tar Heels never entered Rochelle Small-Toney's mind. Yet during her senior year at UNC in 1977-78, she became the school's first African-American women's varsity basketball player. Other firsts followed. During a 35-year career in public service, Small-Toney became Savannah, Ga.'s first African-American and first female city manager.
