Anya Poole embraces new reserve role, but two-year starter admits it was hard at first
Posted Jan 17, 2024

That became Anya Poole’s plight after North Carolina brought in junior transfer Maria Gakdeng from Boston College in the offseason. Gakdeng, a 6-foot-3 center, has started every game this season for the No. 23 Tar Heels.
