Take me to Church: first-year Leah Church scores career-high 19 in OT win over Duke
Posted Jan 22, 2018
Down three to No. 15 Duke with four seconds left in regulation, UNC women’s basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell drew up a play. Who did Hatchell trust to shoot with the game on the line? It wasn’t Paris Kea, a preseason All-ACC Team pick who finished with 36 points. It wasn’t Jamie Cherry, the senior leader. It was Leah Church, a freshman averaging 3.1 points.
