All it took was one quarter for North Carolina.
The UNC women’s basketball team won its fourth straight game Wednesday night, defeating Marshall 75-53 at Carmichael Arena.
North Carolina (8-1) trailed Marshall (5-3) by four points at the end of the first quarter, in part due to a slow start from typically key Tar Heel performers — namely sophomore shooting guards Destinee Walker and Stephanie Watts.
“We started out a little sluggish,” Coach Sylvia Hatchell said. “Letting (Marshall) have open looks.”
The second quarter was entirely different.
It took Walker just six minutes of the second quarter to rack up six points after a scoreless first period.
