Balanced Tar Heels Roll To WBB Win At Home

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) — Deja Kelly scored 20 points to lead No. 7 North Carolina past USC Upstate 89-47 on Friday night.

Kelly shot 8 of 11 from the floor and grabbed four rebounds as the Tar Heels (9-1) won their third straight game. Eva Hodgson added 16 points, four assists and four steals, and Alyssa Ustby chipped in nine points and 11 boards.

"I think Deja has been playing really well all season," UNC coach Courtney Banghart said. "To be able to distribute play and create looks for her teammates when she's not shooting as well as she'd like is a sign of really good player; a really good offensive player, when you can impact the game without scoring.
