[Viking131]

First game of the season. Let's get this dub heels!!

First time in years I've attended a game in good ol Chapel Hil : )

 

[Viking131]

Blanca Thomas not dressed

 

[Viking131]

Lots and I mean lots of kids!

 

[tarboy]

Hope BT can get 100% soon. We need her.

 

[Viking131]

It's loud in Carmichael

 

[Viking131]

Up 8-2. Aarnisalo just hit a transition 3

 

[Carolina151]

3LINAAAAA

That was smooth!

 

[Viking131]

Aarnisalo, and N Harris look good so far

 

[Viking131]

Taliyah Henderson is first off bench

 

[bradarb08]

I'm a little surprised TH is the first off the bench and not Brooks... but I'm not mad about it!

 

[Carolina151]

ELINAAAA

 

[Carolina151]

Nyla Brooks first basket- an and-1!

 

[Viking131]

Lot of players getting action

 

[kystroup]

is Lanie hurt? Was announced as a starter but hasn’t been in

is Lanie hurt? Was announced as a starter but hasn’t been in

She was shooting around before the game, so maybe she is sick...?

 

[Viking131]

23-9 end of 1…. About what you'd expect

 

[Viking131]

She lo

is Lanie hurt? Was announced as a starter but hasn’t been in

Looked good warming up. If she is probably something minor

 

[UNC76]

Our football coach arrived about midway through the quarter.

 

[6string]

She lo

Looked good warming up. If she is probably something minor

Before the game CB said she tweaked an ankle during the SC game and would only play sparingly.

 

[bradarb08]

Y'all... Elina is going to be a problem.

 

[6string]

Y'all... Elina is going to be a problem.

She looks like our best player right now.

 

[wurquhart]

I know it's only been two quarters, but it feels like we've seen enough to know at the very least that this team is going to be a lot of fun to watch

 

[tmatheny]

The freshmen are good (a little out of control right now) but when they get use to this level and keep improving watch out!

 

[Viking131]

53-21 at the break. Our reserves are seeing the most action

 

[bradarb08]

Elina with 11, Nyla Brooks with 10... Nyla Harris and Indy with 9 each.

 

[tarheelbrown]

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere, but why is our first game on a Monday morning?? I imagine there is a special reason for that, but I have no idea.

I think we are already seeing who the primary players are going to be although we do have a lot of guard/wing depth. Ciera has got a bunch of rebounds but just doesn’t look comfortable on offense playing the low post to me. I think she is just a face up, perimeter offense player.

Annual Field trip game- 4K elementary school students. Carolina and State each do this. Over 30 counties are in attendance

This game is mostly to allow school kids from across the state to go to a game. There are 31 counties represented and of course they want to drive them during daylight. If you haven’t been to one of these games your ears will be ringing when you leave.

 

[bradarb08]

Toomey with 7 early third quarter points - including a post-up, a three, and 2-for-2 from the line

 

[BlueHeels02]

I know we’re only play NC Central but I really like the makeup of this team

 

[MarchingTarHeel18]

Really glad CB has been able to give every available player some run. And our newcomers have absolutely held their own. Very promising and exciting! Get healthy and we should be in for a great season!

 

[kystroup]

ugh ft shooting

 

[Viking131]

90-42... As well as expected.

1-0. Go heels!

 

[ncjmayo]

Toomey looked pretty good today, but still a bit worried about the post until we can see Blanca in there.

They’re ringing and I watched from the couch

 

[23UNC]

FT shooting has to be better. Only 16 assists as well on 36 FGs.

 

[bradarb08]

If you couldn't watch today live, here is the condensed game (no commercials, no breaks, rarely free throws).

 

[Viking131]

dook lost, lol

 

[Carolina151]

What Talia said…..
