As a result, USC-Upstate relied heavily on perimeter shots offensively and taking charges on defense. The Spartans had just 12 points in the paint, compared to the Tar Heels’ 48, which had a lot to do with UNC’s stark height advantage over its opponent. Banghart also praised Hodgson’s leadership on the floor, describing her as a tough player who is active defensively. Hodgson backed up that statement at the end of the second quarter, when she had back-to-back inbound steals that were both converted to easy buckets. Carolina’s home-and-home games are with Duke, NC State, Virginia, Pitt, Notre Dame, and Wake Forest.
"Next season the top two divisions of the women's league will come under the remit of the SPFL and we're very excited about that. I think it's a hugely exciting development in the game in Scotland. We've seen the growth in women's football across the globe and we want to be a part of that. "It's been led very much by the clubs and we're certainly hopeful that we'll be able to give whatever support we can to maximise the potential that undoubtedly exists in women's football in Scotland.

"Next season the top two divisions of the women's league will come under the remit of the SPFL and we're very excited about that. SPFL chief executive Neil Doncaster expects another "gripping" season of Scottish Premiership football, live on Sky Sports. "I think every one of those games is hugely important, particularly given the fact that Celtic didn't drop many points at Celtic Park - they certainly didn't lose a game there. Those Celtic-Rangers games are proving to be more and more crucial." The Europa League final will be played on May 31 in Budapest, the Europa Conference League final will be on June 7 in Prague and the Champions League final is scheduled for June 10 in Istanbul.
"They are two fantastic football clubs, huge football clubs and they should be pushing each other all the way. I'm looking forward to it already." "Rangers only lost three games last season, two of them were to Celtic - and I think that turned the title in Celtic's favour. “Knowing that these teams are gonna try to come and punch us first, we want to be known as the team that is annoying defensively, just like we were last year,” Kelly said.

But if the Tar Heels want wins against No. 19 Michigan, No. 6 Virginia Tech and No. 5 Notre Dame in the coming weeks, they’ll need to do what they did right on Friday and also work on what they can do better. Spartans point guard Nyla Walker stood at just 5-foot-4 — four inches shorter than Kelly, UNC's smallest player on the floor that night.

If anything, Friday’s victory over USC-Upstate proved the Tar Heels are primed for what comes next. Paris, one of the youngest players on the roster, got several looks off assists from redshirt senior Eva Hodgson, one of team's most seasoned veterans. Aside from being paired together in the team’s buddy system, Paris said Hodgson has also taken her in like a younger sister and has contributed to the confidence that she's found on the court. The team shattered its season shooting average, going an impressive 60.7 percent from the field.
