North Carolina's early fight wasn't enough on Thursday night, as Courtney Banghart and the UNC women's basketball program suffered a loss to No. 2-ranked Texas in the ACC/SEC Challenge.
64. 441. Texas. 79. 467. Final
The Tar Heels came out of the gate strong, having their way in the paint. North Carolina held a 21-16 advantage after one quarter of play, as the Longhorns had no answer for the Tar Heels' early aggressiveness.
Unfortunately, that offensive success diminished significantly over the final three quarters, as the Tar Heels were held to just 43 points over the final 30 minutes.
