Courtney Banghart's Tar Heels are having success with a young, fun group.
By Adam Lucas
A few hours after North Carolina toppled third-ranked Louisville in Chapel Hill on Feb. 17, Tar Heel head coach Courtney Banghart couldn't sleep.
Not because of the heart-pounding nature of the one-point victory. Not because she kept replaying the final frenetic seconds.
"I couldn't sleep," she says, "because it felt like my wedding. Did I say hi to everyone? What did I miss? I was so focused on possession by possession, and I made a vow that I wouldn't do that again, that I wouldn't feel that way again."
