The UNC women’s basketball program will play arch-rival Duke Blue Devils in front of a sold-out crowd, announced Tuesday.
Twelve days from today, UNC will end their regular season in a rivalry showdown against Duke, and it should be electric with Carmichael Arena sold out. The Tar Heels has had a season of highs and lows, taking on some of the best schools in the nation, while jumping in and out of the Associated Press’s Top 25 poll.
Currently UNC is not in the top 25 but can leap back in with their last stretch of the schedule featuring some notable names. The Tar Heel’s next two games are against No. 6 NC State and No. 8 Virginia Tech. If they can go 2-0 in those games, they can see a significant shift in their status.
Depending on how UNC finishes the year will help or hurt their efforts in bringing a national championship back to Chapel Hill. A good seeding could be what the doctor ordered to cruise into the ideal matchups.
