The North Carolina Tar Heels women’s basketball team has finalized its roster for the upcoming season, which will look quite different from the team that took the court last year. Head coach Courtney Banghart added four freshmen and two transfers to the 2021-22 roster, who join eight returning from last year.
Banghart has been trending up since she took over as the Tar Heels’ coach, taking them to the NCAA Tournament last season after a mini-drought, weathering the challenges of an abrupt exodus before her arrival and a global pandemic soon after it. It was just the fifth appearance in the Big Dance for the Heels in 10 seasons.
