For those who were unaware the game today was on CW where UNC women continued their West Coast trip with their final game against Stanford. The UNC women were able to secure a 69 to 67 win over the Stanford women, the only team this season that went 2-0 on their road trip to California and Stanford. One other note which I observed today is that UNC and Notre Dame women are the only undefeated teams on the road this season in the ACC. UNC women are currently 20-4 overall and 8-3 in conference play. Their goal is to finish in the top four and receive a double bye into the quarter-finals of the ACCT. Stats from the game are below:
FG% UNC - 40.3% and Stanford 41.4% - The team did not shoot exceptional well today, probably due to the time change adjustments.
3PT% - UNC made 9 of 17 shots for 52.9% - Stanford only made 3 of 14 for 21.4% - Note Ustby made 4 of 5 three pointers attempted which is a career high for her.
FT% - UNC only attempted 4 FT's the entire game and made 2 of them. Stanford shot 19 and made 18 of them for 94.7%. Not to seem bias but the fouls called in this game were in favor of Stanford as the stats show.
Rebounds - UNC with 37 and Stanford with 36.
Turnovers - UNC with 11 and Stanford with 15.
UNC scoring leader Ustby with 16, Rebound leader Blanc Thomas with 9, and assist Townsend with 4.
UNC had five players in double digits scoring, and Stanford only had 2 players.
UNC played 9 players with 8 of them in the scoring category.
Next game is at Clemson on 2/9/2025.
