Kea Earns Preseason All-America Honors

North Carolina senior guard Paris Kea has been named a Street & Smith's Preseason third-team All-American. Last season, Kea was an Atlantic Coast Conference first team selection. She started all 31 games for the Tar Heels, averaging 19.4 points and 4.8 assists per game.

Kea led the ACC with four games of 30 or more points last year, and was the only player in the league to record at least 30 points and 10 assists in a game when she totaled 31 points and career-high 11 assists against South Alabama.

The Greensboro, North Carolina, native enters her final collegiate season as Carolina's all-time career scoring average leader at 18.
