The N.C. Central women’s basketball team secured its first win of the season on Tuesday night with a 66–53 victory over UNC Asheville at the McDougald-McLendon Arena. The Eagles’ defense set the tone early, forcing 31 turnovers and turning those into 27 points on the other end.

The Eagles entered the night 0–2, with a season-opening loss to North Carolina, 90–42, followed by a 78–68 defeat at UNC Wilmington. Returning home, they delivered their strongest performance yet and finally got into the win column.

During the second quarter, the Lady Eagles began to pull away, leading by as many as 13 points. The Eagles would keep a lead the rest of the game, but allowed UNC Asheville to cut the lead to as little as two points with a little more than five minutes left in the game. The Lady Eagles never panicked, answering with a decisive run that put the game out of reach for the Bulldogs.

“They hit a couple threes that I did not like,” NCCU Head Coach Terrence Baxter said. “Other than that, we changed the game.”

Leading this game’s offensive charge were graduate forwards Morgan Callahan and Aniya Finger, who both ended the game with a combined 30 points and 20 rebounds. Following the game, Baxter referred to the pair as the “double-double queens.”
