University of North Carolina women’s basketball head coach Sylvia Hatchell picked up career win number 700 with Carolina on Sunday afternoon in Carmichael Arena.

Hatchell’s Tar Heels opened ACC play against Clemson and improved to 11-5 after a 72-56 win. With Sunday’s win, UNC has a season-high five wins in a row.

The game included four Tar Heels with double digits with Jamie Cherry, a sophomore guard, leading the team with 16 points. A large majority of Cherry’s points came from the free-throw line; where she went 12-for-16.

Freshman Stephanie Watts and red-shirt junior Hillary Summers both added 14 points each; Summers accomplished her fourth double-double of the season with 10 rebounds. Worth noting, Watts was named the ACC’s Rookie of the Week in December, as the guard averages 12.9 points per game this season.

Freshman Destinee Walker contributed 11 points, marking the 15th time in 16 games the guard has scored double digits.

The game only featured one tie, as UNC outpaced Clemson in scoring in every period except the second. Senior forward Xylina McDaniel opened scoring for North Carolina by scoring the game’s first four points and by the end of the period, Hatchell’s team had secured an 18-7 lead.

At halftime, North Carolina had secured a 32-22 lead, despite Clemson coming back within five points in the second period.

UNC’s largest advantage came in the third period in the form of a 20-point lead over the Tigers. A field-goal drought of over five minutes for the Tigers in the third helped keep North Carolina in the lead, as well as an 8-0 run for the Tar Heels. UNC entered the fourth period with a 50-37 advantage.

North Carolina put together a 16-8 run ending the fourth period and securing Hatchell’s career milestone.

The Tar Heels will be back in action on Thursday, Jan. 7, against Syracuse in Carmichael Arena at 7 p.m.
