Robert Reda, a Chapel Hill bowhunter, has advocated in the last few months for the town to apply for a program to
hunt deer within city limits. Reda said the program will help control increasing deer problems throughout the area.
DEER HUNTER
Urban archer advocates for program

staff writer
Robert Reda isn’t defending his
roses or azaleas.
But the Chapel Hill resident can
still be found in the early morning
or late evening during hunting
season harnessed in a tree, aiming
at deer with bow and arrow.
Reda is an urban archer, and
he’s one of more than 25 residents
advocating to bring to Chapel Hill
a program that would allow deer
hunting with bows and arrows.
Reda, 56, said at the Town Council
meeting on Jan. 11 that establishing
such a program, which is offered
by the North Carolina Wildlife
Resources Commission, would be
the safest way to cull Chapel Hill’s
growing deer population.
Those who spoke at the meet-
ing were concerned for more than
their garden plants. They also
pointed to car accidents and Lyme
disease as hazards deer cause.

Chapel Hill still has work to do to achieve racial equality.
This was the central message of Monday’s speakers at the annual
Martin Luther King Jr. Day Rally, March and Worship Service in
downtown Chapel Hill.
“We are not only here to talk about the legacy of Martin Luther
King, but to talk about how we can keep the dream alive,” said

Nominations being accepted
for Carolina Chiron Award
Nominations are being accept-
ed for the Carolina Chiron Award,
which gives one professor the
opportunity to deliver a “last lec-
ture” each year.
Founded last year by seniors
Lizzie Bernold and Andrew Coonin,
the award honors the intellectual
achievements and character of a
UNC professor.
Last year, communications
professor Paul Ferguson received
the award, which was inspired
by Randy Pausch’s widely known
“Last Lecture,” which was seen by
millions on YouTube and show-
cased on the Oprah Winfrey
Show.
This year’s winner will deliver a
lecture in April as though it were
his or her last. In addition to the
lecture, recipients receive a mon-
etary award which is split between
the professor’s department and a
philanthropic or research project
of their choice.
The nomination form can be
found on the Carolina Chiron
Award’s Web site, chironaward.

City Schools due to the second sig-
nificant cut to the district’s budget
in two years.
District administrators expect
million dollars next school year,
Superintendent Neil Pedersen
said.
“It is reasonable to assume we
in positions,” Pedersen said. Staff
salaries make up nearly 85 percent
of the district’s budget, he said, giv-
ing them few other ways to reduce
the budget.
He anticipates a $2 million cut
to the current budget, which was
already downsized $3 million last
year.
Pedersen said last year’s cuts
started in areas not directly relat-
ed to educating students. But the
Ken Strong, who taught theater and performed at UNC, was remembered in the Paul Green Theatre on Monday. Strong was a beloved member
of the faculty, and was known for saying “I love you” to his students at the end of his classes. Strong died at the age of 52 on Tuesday.
“This is almost certainly going to
mean reductions which will impact
students,” School Board Chairman
Mike Kelley said.
Both Pedersen and Kelley noted
that many ideas from last year’s
budget discussion will likely come
up again, including cuts to health
and electives programs.
“We will look at possibilities that
were brought up last year, some of
which we did not have to imple-
ment,” Pedersen said. “I expect a
good number of those will go into
effect.”
For the second straight year,
the district will not receive money
from the state for new textbooks.
The decrease in state funding is
projected to total $1.1 million.
“We have a global financial —
for lack of a better word — mess,
including rising utility costs and
a decreased state contribution for
health care and retirement ben-
efits.
“We’ve basically been absorbing
an inflationary increase,” Pedersen
said, “which equals a reduction in
buying power.”
Small increases in district rev-
enue are expected to keep the
shortfall below $2 million, between
1 percent and 2 percent of the total
budget.
School administrators said they
were not surprised by the cuts.
“We had been reading and
hearing all along that this year
there would be more cutbacks,”
McDougle Middle School Principal
Debra Scott said.
The school board will discuss
the budget at its planning con-

who will determine the county’s
contribution over the summer.
“This is my 18th year as superin-
tendent,” Pedersen said, “and this
is the first year we’ve received less
money from the county commis-
sioners than the year before.”
The other half of funding will
come from the state.
The school district’s total budget
is usually between $110 million and knowledge about the importance

Memorial helps campus honor Ken Strong
By Lindsay Saladino
staff writer
Kenneth P. Strong lived fully, loved great-
ly, taught passionately, performed powerful-
ly and left his audience applauding loudly
and wanting more of his incredible spirit.
Strong, 52, died on Tuesday, Jan. 12,
after a long battle with cancer. He was a
professor in the department of dramatic
art and a member of PlayMakers Repertory
Company.
A memorial was held at 1 p.m. Monday in
the Paul Green Theatre to celebrate his life.
The Rev. Chuck Bugg began the ceremo-
ny, speaking of how Strong inspired him and
how he was someone who loved life.
He finished the invocation by saying, “What
matters most is the content of our character.”
As friends and family shared memories of
Strong, they showed pictures of his life on a
screen in the theater, accompanied by the
song “Let’s Stay Together” by Al Green.
Through those tales and tributes, Strong’s
character rang loud and true.
“When I think of Ken, I think of love and
joy and laughter,” said Ray Dooley, a fellow
professor in the dramatic art department
and member of PlayMakers.
McKay Coble, chairwoman of the dra-
matic art department and member of
PlayMakers, shared a memory of a picture
Strong had sent her while on vacation.
In the picture he lay on a float, splashing
around in the pool. He added a note that read,
“Weather is here; wish you were beautiful.”
Even though Strong liked to make oth-
ers laugh, he was also dedicated to his work.
While battling cancer, Strong still performed
in plays and taught classes.
His wife, Kee Strong, spoke of his desire
for challenges.
She said he was always looking to climb
the highest mountain. Determined, he would
passionately hike to the top of a mountain,
and once there, would turn to her and say,
“I think there is a higher one.”
Some speakers at the memorial read letters

From Africa to UNC, choir brings energy

By Katy Doll
Arts Editor
A single, piercing note split
the silence to start Sunday night’s
show, setting the stage for a high-
energy and emotional performance
from the Soweto Gospel Choir.
The South African choir, com-
posed of about 25 members who sing
and dance, performed a program of
traditional African songs, Christian
spirituals and contemporary pieces.
Members of the choir performed
in brightly colored costumes, with a
costume change during the show’s
intermission.
Though many of the faster songs
had audiences clapping along or
tapping their toes, the stand-outs
of the night were the tightly knit
harmonies of some of the a cap-
pella numbers.
The fourth and fifth songs of
the evening, “Ngahlulele” and
“Mangisondele Nkosi Yam,” were
particularly powerful. For the fourth
song, only the women sang, standing
in a straight line at the front of the
stage, their quiet intensity matching
their emotion-laden vocals.
Throughout the performance,
the rich, deep tones of the basses
were matched by the clear, bright
vocals from the soprano soloists.
After a series of traditional
songs, the choir performed more
modern music, focusing on songs
that “speak to the soul,” as one
group member put it.
Audiences recognized the famil-
iar tones of Bob Marley’s “One
Love” and Simon & Garfunkel’s
“Bridge Over Troubled Water.” For
both songs, the choir brought a sort
of stadium-filling sound that com-
plemented the original recordings
while still creating a unique take on
the material.
Though many groups have per-
formed their own take on “Bridge
Over Troubled Water,” this per-
formance presented the song at
its best.
In addition to the vocal stylings,
each song was presented with
some dancing, ranging from sim-

ply swaying with the beat to having
a high-kicking competition in the
middle of the stage.
For some pieces, the music was
upstaged by the dancing, as the audi-
ence found itself watching the move-
ments of the colorful garments.
Some songs were performed
with accompaniment from drums
and guitar, and the guitar at times
overpowered the soloist’s vocals.
The performers were excellent
showmen and women, executing
dances, songs, stage exits and pass-
ings of the mic seamlessly. Long
after the show, audiences could
hear the beat of the drums and the
raising of voices in song.

“I make a killer venison meat-
loaf,” she said.
Reda, an AT&T Inc. employee, is
also on the Orange County Habitat
for Humanity Board of Directors.
Earlier this month he took home-
made venison sausage bread to the
board’s retreat, where he said many
first-time venison eaters enjoyed it.
Reda called archery a good solu-
tion because it’s safe without caus-
ing a disturbance.
“It’s quiet, a challenge and it gives
you the opportunity to get close to
the animals you’re hunting.”
Reda makes use of deer he kills
and said he has donated more than
20 to Hunters for the Hungry, which
provides venison to the needy.
At the meeting, Reda urged the
council to consider archery rather
than alternatives, which include
asking residents to build eight-foot
fences around their yards, using deer
repellent or gardening with plants
that are less enticing to the animals.
“Putting up fences between
neighbors is not something we do in
Chapel Hill,” Reda told the board.
The council plans to hold a public
forum on urban archery in February
where multiple experts will speak.
“I was very fascinated by what
he talked about, and I’m very open-
minded about learning more,”
council member Gene Pease said.
Council member Laurin
Easthom said she is concerned with
the safety risks of urban archery.
“I’m not ready to make that step
yet; I want more information first,”
she said at the meeting.
The statewide urban archery sea-
son runs from January to February
each year. The deadline to apply for
the 2011 program is in April.

Lincoln-inspired work deserves a tip of the hat
By Lauren Russell
Assistant arts editor
Bill T. Jones presented a mod-
ern dance inspired by Abraham
Lincoln without top hats, big
beards or pennies Friday night at
Memorial Hall.
It was called “Fondly Do We
Hope … Fervently Do We Pray”
and presented by the Bill T. Jones/
Arnie Zane Dance Company.
The performance, rich with
music, dance and dialogue,
demands several views from the
audience so they may focus on each
element composing the piece. The
many elements make it a different
trip for every viewer.
The work presented profiles of
historical figure Lincoln and his
controversial first lady Mary Todd,
as well as hypothetical slaves and
people alive during the past few
decades or the future who could
have been impacted by Lincoln’s
assassination.
The music, dancing and stage
setting were beautiful in and of
themselves but were seemingly
just vehicles for Jones to narrate on
America’s twisted history as a result
of Lincoln not creating his utopia
through his Reconstruction.
Dancers artistically threw their
bodies of achieved perfection,
which only exercising for a living
produces, around the stage acting
as their characters.
The movements of the 11 danc-
ers and sounds of the four musi-
cians presented an emotional trip
void of the clichés that would seem
unavoidable in a work based on
such an icon in history.
“Writing music about Abraham
Lincoln is not the easiest thing
Arts
I’ve had to do,” the band leader
Christopher Lancaster said jok-
ingly in the Q-and-A after the per-
formance.
Despite the difficult task,
the musicians performed origi-
nal pieces as well as works by
other great composers, including
Mendelssohn, that displayed the
diversity of the musicians and set
the serious mood.
Narration, by a man whose
strong voice could compete with
Morgan Freeman, was rich with
well-researched history about
Lincoln and America’s long fight
against slavery.
The story was nonlinear and
inconclusive, therefore not for the
individual looking for thoughtless
entertainment. The holistic perfor-
mance provides more meaning to
the viewers after they have time to

let it settle in their heads.
A history buff would get more
out of the performance, but simply
being familiar with the civil rights
movement and the Civil War was
enough background to perceive the
emotion of it.
Jones presented a unique work
that manages to entertain even
those who think sitting through a
90-minute dance an arduous task,
and that makes one want to shake
a fist at John Wilkes Booth.

For the
new year,
focus on
getting fit
Y
ou might have gone to the
gym on the first day after
Winter Break. If you did,
then we probably bumped into
one another on the track. It was
packed in there.
When I got to Rams Head
Recreation Center, I was sure
that I had actually stumbled onto
the set of a National Geographic
special.
I slowly lumbered around the
track like the proverbial elephant
at a watering hole, and the swift,
predatory runners wove in and
out of the masses in an attempt
to keep their heart rates up.
I have to assume that at least
some of these people were here
because of their New Year’s
resolutions.
If you’ve missed out on the
last century of American culture,
perhaps you haven’t heard about
New Year’s resolutions.
But chances are that you know
what they are, and you might
have even made a few for 2010.
You might have decided to get
better grades, or to budget more
effectively. But one resolution that
pops up for many people year
after year is fitness. People will fre-
quently resolve to exercise more.
The holidays come with des-
serts, large family gatherings and
general lethargy, so often the
New Year is seen as a new chance
to rededicate oneself to pursuing
a fitter lifestyle.
The sad truth is that though
all these students are crammed
into the gym on the first day after
break, attendance will wane as
the semester progresses.
But you and I don’t have to
follow that trend. Instead of let-
ting your exercise habits fall to
the wayside, think about these
tips from the American Heart
Association.
They fall into a few general
categories:
n  Turn exercise into some-
thing habitual. You can do this by
setting a time when you always
plan on going, and fitting it into
your schedule. Successful exercis-
ers I’ve talked to treat going to
the gym just like another class.
Getting into a rhythm will ensure
that you actually get there.
n  Start slowly. You aren’t
helping yourself by working out
so strenuously in the first week
that you burn out for a month. If
you just manage to do moderate
activity, that’s better than noth-
ing at all.
That sounds like a platitude,
but I’ve been stopped from exer-
cising because I was worried it
wouldn’t be “serious” exercise.
n  Enjoy what you do to stay
fit. Use music or fun activi-
ties and get excited about your
upcoming run. Go to a place that
doesn’t stress you out, and choose
exercises you’ll want to complete.
n  Get your friends to help
you out. Being responsible to
other people has worked for team
sports for centuries, and it will
work for you as well.
Stack the deck in your favor
and choose workout buddies who
will keep you on track.
Sometimes we love that our
friends will let us off the hook eas-
ily, but lax expectations won’t help
you here. The best gym partners
strike a balance between support-
ive coach and stern taskmaster.
In Chapel Hill, you can look
around on any given day and see
happy people jogging through
the streets. Even if you’re not
marathon-ready, you’ll release
some endorphins, move your
body and have a good time.
In this episode of National
Geographic, you can be the ele-
phant that never forgets to exer-
cise, or you can be the cheetah
sprinting around the track. Just
make sure to choose the role that
fits you best.

Each year the UNC admis-

was accused of violating state
law by accepting gifts from a
liquor company.
In response to these actions,
the state ABC commission is
considering reforms that include
privatizing the sale of liquor.
By eliminating the state
monopoly on liquor, North
Carolina’s liquor industry could
become more efficient.
The bureaucracy is simply
too cumbersome and the pos-
sibility of corruption too great
to justify itself.
Moving to a market-based
system would help solve this
problem.
Pryor Gibson, ABC com-
were submitted through the
University’s Web site.
With such a low tally for the
number of printed applications
being submitted, the University
is right to reevaluate its current
strategy.
Director of Undergraduate
Admissions Stephen Farmer
said that his office will study
the idea of abandoning the
paper application sent to every
prospective student.
The change could save the
University around $30,000,
Farmer said.
It is time for such measures
because the printed application
has become all but obsolete.
If UNC stops preemptively
mailing applications, students
without access to a computer
will still be able to request a
paper version.

said that the sheer size of
the bureaucracy is its biggest
problem.
As it stands, more than 160
individual local boards operate
a total of 411 liquor stores.
Further, the monopolization
of the distribution and sale of
liquor by the state is no more
than a puritanical remnant of
prohibition-era policies that
have little relevance to the
present.
North Carolina should with-
draw from the National Alcohol
Beverage Control Association
and leave the sale and distri-
bution of liquor to the private
sector.
The next logical step would
be for the University to adopt
the Common Application.
The Common Application is
a student’s one-step approach
for applying to nearly 400 uni-
versities, including Harvard,
Princeton and Yale.
Rather than having to go
through the mind-numbing

cations, students using the
Common Application only
have to fill out one form and

plementary questions for dif-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Greek review to focus on
Greeks, not administration
TO THE EDITOR:
Your editorial, “Outside
insight,” (Jan. 15) missed the
point of the review of Greek
life that we’ve asked Jordan
Whichard to conduct.
This is not about the
University’s administration or
the Division of Student Affairs
of the Office of Fraternity and
Sorority Life. This is about the
Greek system itself and our
desire for it to be the best it can
be. We want Carolina to have the
best Greek system in the country
and for that Greek system to pro-
mote excellence across the full
spectrum of student life.
I agree with you on one point,
though: Whichard is an excellent
person to take on this assignment.
He’s an accomplished Carolina
alumnus who believes strongly
in the Greek experience.
He will be consulting with a
wide range of constituents —
students, parents, alumni, facul-
ty, staff and administration — as
well as exploring best practices
at other universities. I have no
doubt that we’ll benefit from his
insight and recommendations
for improvement.
So help us get the word out. If
you have ideas that you think will
improve Greek life at Carolina,
e-mail Mr. Whichard at greekre-
view@unc.edu.

Privatizing liquor sales
won’t lead to price hikes
TO THE EDITOR:
When I saw that the article
about North Carolina liquor
stores, “State considering alco-
hol reforms” (Jan. 15), was sub-
titled “Liquor prices could go
up with privatization of sales,”
I had a feeling that it would be
biased and completely unsup-
ported. As it stands, the only
thing that the article even
said about prices in relation
to privatization was that they
could change, failing even to
support that statement.
The way I understand it,
monopolies (like the one that
our state has on liquor sales)
keep prices high while compe-
tition drives prices down. The
article does admit that privati-
zation would greatly increase
the number of places that you
can purchase liquor (increasing
competition). Under what pre-
tense does this correlate with
an increase in the sales price of
liquor?
Absolutely nothing in the
article backed up the bold
words at the beginning of the
story, which said “Liquor prices
could go up with privatization
of sales.”
If you are going to make state-
ments from left field, I would
appreciate an attempt to support
them, or at least conceal them in
the body of the article.
If you do have some facts that
you mistakenly left out, I would
love to hear them. I fear that this
is just another example of biased
writing in favor of big govern-
ment, and the current abhorrent
monopoly that the state has on
our booze.

UNC alumnus dies in Haiti

By Sarah Frier
City Editor
One UNC alumnus was involved
in relief long before the magni-
tude-7.0 earthquake hit Haiti on
Jan. 12 and turned the world’s
attention to a devastated country.
Rev. Sam Dixon, the chief
executive of the United Methodist
Committee on Relief, died in the
rubble of a collapsed hotel while he
was at a conference to coordinate
missionary work in Haiti.
It was the last of many global
outreach trips — from countries
in Africa to Chile to former Soviet
republics — during which he would
connect with the impoverished, the
hungry and the war-torn.
“Sam could reach out and touch
a child and just light up their life,”
said Cashar Evans, a long-time
worker in the United Methodist
Church who considers Dixon a
best friend.
Optimistic and humorous, Dixon
would relate with people in crisis
through acts as simple as taking
digital pictures and inspiring awe
in children who had never seen that
kind of technology, Evans said.
And then Dixon, a pastor in
North Carolina for 24 years, would
come back to the United States and
tell stories to congregations of peo-

graduate, often

trips to areas in
poverty.
ple who had never seen that kind
of poverty.
“He had the ability to transcend
that setting back to the pulpit and
tell and relate the story,” Evans
said. “The people he talked to had
no concept of what he was talking
about when he started. Before he
was finished, he had them commit-
ted to relief work.”
Dixon is survived by his wife,
four children and two grandchil-
dren, as well as his mother and
three sisters.
The United Methodist
Committee on Relief is an orga-
nization within the church that
responds to international and
domestic disasters.
Paul Dirdak, who now develops
pension programs internationally
for the church, held the chief execu-
tive position before Dixon and hired
him into the organization.
“He had just a remarkable abil-
ity to empathize with people in cri-
sis and find ways to bring a certain
amount of well-balanced joy while
protecting their dignity,” Dirdak
said.
“He respected their situation
while reminding us that things are
not always as bad as they seem, and
we can find ways to get through
them.”
Evans said Dixon was adapt-
able — he could warmly share sto-
ries with people in any economic
or political situation. And Evans
laughs while thinking of Dixon’s
ability to check scores of UNC bas-
ketball or football games, no matter
which country he was working in.
Dixon was with a group of relief
specialists who were pinned in
rubble of the Hotel Montana in
the capital of Port-au-Prince for
more than 55 hours. Other mem-
bers of the group survived and have
returned to the U.S.
Claire McKeown, pastor of
Carrboro United Me thodis t
Church, remembers working
alongside Dixon.
“Sam is someone of deep humil-
ity that he truly lived with his heart
what he believed in his life,” she said.
“He did that every single day.”

really sad,’” she said. “You care on
the human level, but as far as being
active … a lot of people will leave
things alone and after a couple
months, people forget.”

If most commission members
agree on a plan, Congress would

Health care bill fails
to protect campuses
By Emily Stephenson
senior writer
Health care overhaul legisla-
tion passed last month by the U.S.
Senate lacks protections that allow
colleges and universities to offer
more affordable student insurance
plans, several prominent education
groups announced last week.
The House of Representatives’
version of health legislation, which
passed in November, would con-
tinue to treat campus health plans
as group plans instead of individ-
ual plans, which keeps premiums
lower for students.
The American Council on
Education, the American College
Health Association and other
groups sent letters to congressio-
nal leaders arguing for similar lan-
guage in the final bill. The Senate
version does not have the same
protections for campus plans.
“Increased student health insur-

ance premiums would add to the
total costs students pay to attend
college,” states a Jan. 8 letter signed
by American Council on Education
President Molly Corbett Broad.
“This is counterproductive to
the significant actions Congress
and the administration have taken
to make both higher education and
health care more affordable.”
The groups asked that the final
bill — which legislators are draft-
ing now — include the House’s
language.
The Senate bill, which passed on
a roughly party-line Dec. 24 vote,
only states that it wouldn’t block
colleges and universities from
offering plans.
“The Senate has some lan-
guage; we’d like to see that clari-
fied,” said Mary Hoban, who works
with the American College Health
Association’s advocacy group.
Hoban said Thursday that her
9
group hadn’t received a response.
“We’ll do some follow-up and see
if we can’t get somebody’s atten-
tion,” she said.
Mary Covington, executive direc-
tor for Campus Health Services at
UNC-Chapel Hill, said in an e-mail
that she thinks the omission from
the Senate bill was an oversight
that should be resolved.
“There needs to be language
in the bill that recognizes plans
offered by the University as group
plans rather than individual plans,”
Covington said.
About 1,750 undergraduates
are enrolled in UNC-CH’s campus
plan, offered through Blue Cross &
Blue Shield of North Carolina. The
UNC system is finalizing a uniform
insurance plan that will be offered
on all of its campuses next fall.

The Daily Tar Heel
Heath among seven Tar UNC falls in tourney finals
Heels selected in draft
By Jonathan Jones
Assistant SPorts Editor
When Atlanta Beat head coach
Gareth O’Sullivan sat in the press
box of the North Carolina women’s
soccer match against UCLA, he
had his eye on a Tar Heel for his
No. 1 draft pick.
O’Sullivan and the Beat chose
UNC senior midfielder Tobin Heath
with the first choice Friday in the
2010 Women’s Professional Soccer
Draft. Heath was among seven Tar
Heels drafted into the second-year
league — the most of any school.
“She’ll be a wonderful pro from
every perspective,” UNC coach
Anson Dorrance said. “She’s the
kind of player that people pay
money to watch. She’s very clever
with the ball, and she has some tre-
mendous creativity.”
Heath, a three-time All-American
and Olympic gold medalist, is the
first choice in the history of the
Beat’s franchise, which begins its
inaugural season in April.
But Heath was just the tip of the
iceberg for the national champions
in the nine-team draft.
MARYLAND
from page 12
Maryland’s Lori Bjork drained a
3-pointer to give her team a one-
point lead.
And led by the hot hand of
Bjork, who finished with 18 points,
Maryland rallied to a 33-33 tie
heading into halftime.
At that juncture, Hatchell
approached her veterans.
“I really challenged Italee and
Cetera to carry the team,” she said.
“They’re juniors, but they’ve got to
Georgia Tech
from page 12
needed all 36 minutes to get the
win.”
Shumpert shot 10-for-17 from
the floor and was 3-for-5 from
behind the arc. He also earned
nine attempts at the free throw
line, making seven.
But for all of Shumpert’s
points, a key UNC mistake down
the stretch opened the door for
Peacock’s game-winner.

“She’ll be a wonderful pro from every
perspective. She’s the kind of player that
people pay money to watch.”
Anson Dorrance, UNC head coach on former player Tobin Heath
“We were blown away,” Dorrance
said. “Not only the number was excit-
ing for us, but where they were draft-
ed, that’s absolutely incredible.”
The Chicago Red Stars nabbed
senior defender Whitney Engen
with the fourth overall pick. Engen
anchored a UNC defense that
allowed 12 goals last season.
Nikki Washington and Casey
Nogueira were selected fifth and
eighth respectively by the Los
Angeles Sol. Washington tore her
ACL in September and missed
nearly the entire 2009 season.
Nogueira led the team in goals
this year but was the fourth Tar Heel
taken. The teammates will take to
the pitch playing alongside Marta,
three-time World Player of the Year.
“They’re excited to go out there
and play,” Dorrance said. “I think
be the leaders of our team.”
With 7:49 remaining in the
game, the Terrapins had just
scored 10 unanswered points. And
Degraffenreid and Lucas answered
their coach’s call.
With UNC clinging to a two-
point lead, DeGraffenreid went
coast-to-coast for an open layup.
On the next possession, Lucas
dove for a loose ball, passing it to
DeGraffenreid for another layup.
Bolstered by a revitalized back-
court, UNC continued to extend
its lead.
more than a minute remaining,
Drew couldn’t get open on an in-
bounds pass and the ball instead
was thrown to forward Ed Davis.
Davis was immediately double
teamed, and he couldn’t find an
open teammate before being tied
up for a jump ball.
The Yellow Jackets scored the
next possession to regain the lead.
“I didn’t go backcourt, and that
was something I should have done,”
Drew said. “That probably would
have freed up Ed a little bit more.
“I stayed in the halfcourt and

North Carolina couldn’t escape from a flat
first-half performance.
Just like in the opening minutes of its
sloppy loss to Clemson, UNC provided little
resistance on the defensive and offensive
ends in its 73-71 loss to No. 19 Georgia Tech
(13-4, 2-2 ACC). The Yellow Jackets built
up a 20-point lead before twelve minutes
had elapsed on the game clock.
“We were so tentative and tight early
on it was unbelievable,” UNC coach Roy
Williams said. “I tried to give them con-
fidence, and that’s hard to do, but it was
unusual basketball playing for us in the
first half.”
The Tar Heels (12-6, 1-2) did rally from
the deficit — even notching a two-point
lead in the game’s final minutes. But the
comeback attempt crumbled when Georgia

Will Graves fell one shot short of having the game
of his life on Saturday.
He had a career-high 24 points — the most he’d
scored since winning the 3A N.C. high school state
title four years ago, also in the Smith Center.
But his long miss from near midcourt at the buzz-

UNC past Terps
Shegog tallies 17
points in ACC win
By Anna Kim
senior writer
With her team coming off two con-
secutive road losses, North Carolina
women’s basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell
decided it was time for some changes.
She tried shuffles in the lineup and
what her team jokingly called 24 hours
of practice.
“When you lose, you have to keep
changing things until you find some-
thing that works,” Hatchell said.
In a 75-64 win against Maryland (14-
4, 2-2 ACC), the team found one thing
that did.
Chay Shegog in the post.
When Hatchell called for a set offense,
the sophomore forward knew that meant
only one thing.
“We wanted to get the ball inside more,”
Shegog said. “Score. Draw fouls. Limit the
other team. I took it and ran with it.”
Shegog, who finished with 17 points
and seven rebounds, helped the Tar
Heels (14-3, 2-1) dominate possession
and jump out to an early 18-7 lead in the
first half.
During that run, Shegog scored eight
of North Carolina’s points.
“Chay again had a good game,”
Hatchell said. “She helped us make some
big baskets when we needed to.”
The sophomore’s offense also com-
pensated for a void left by the team’s two
leading scorers, guards Italee Lucas and
Cetera DeGraffenreid.
Both were held scoreless in the first
half before recovering in the second half,
with Lucas breaking out with 12 points.
“ T he team does need me and
(DeGraffenreid) to step up on offense,”
Lucas said. “I have to help more than on
defense. That’s the bottom line.”

fact, the junior had made only two of 22

Chay Shegog grabbed seven rebounds,
including three offensive boards,
while dominating the paint in North
Carolina’s 75-64 win against Maryland.
DeGraffenreid did not start in
Sunday’s game, the first time she hasn’t
since North Carolina played Winston-
Salem State on Jan. 2.
“I’m just trying to find the right ones
that can get the job done,” Hatchell said.
“We might get other starters.”
Youth and inexperience have resulted
in nine different starting lineups early in
the season, Hatchell said.
For some time, it looked as if Shegog’s
17 points, which tied a career-high,
would not be enough.
With 2:23 remaining in the first half,

is your team. Put them on your back.’”
Having started 74 of 87 games dur-
ing her three-year college career prior
to the Maryland matchup, it seemed
DeGraffenreid would have a chance
to make amends almost immediately.
Instead, though, the guard found herself
sitting next to assistant coach Andrew
Calder on the bench.
“Cetera did not play well the past two
games, and that’s why She’la (White)
started,” Hatchell said. “I was just trying
to challenge her and get her to step up
and be aggressive and assertive.”
Three minutes into the second half,
Hatchell gave DeGraffenreid that chance.
The junior made sure not to waste it.
