The UNC women’s basketball will celebrate Senior Night Thursday when it hosts Virginia Tech at Carmichael Arena. The Tar Heels are hungry for revenge after falling to the Hokies 68-65 in Blacksburg on New Year’s Day. The game will mark the final regular-season home game for Malu Tshitenge, Eva Hodgson and Ariel Young, though Hodgson’s status is still up in the air. She has been out since late January with what head coach Courtney Banghart has described as an “upper-body condition.”

If you aren’t making the trip to Carmichael for the game, here’s how to follow along at home:
