NC State women’s hoops beats UNC 82-63 behind Jakia Brown-Turner’s career day

NC State avenged its loss in Chapel Hill with a decisive victory over the Tar Heels on Sunday afternoon. The Wolfpack played well at the defensive end and UNC’s perimeter offense came crashing back to earth—the Heels were 0-12 from beyond the arc during the first half.

UNC shot 11-26 from three in Chapel Hill, but without that sort of standout performance, the Heels didn’t have the necessary firepower to keep up with the Pack this time around.

Jakia Brown-Turner was by far the best player on the floor, scoring a career-high 25 points on 10-16 shooting, including 4-5 from outside.
