LAST TIME OUT
There is something about UCLA that brings out the best in North Carolina sophomore guard Allisha Gray.

Along with Gray's 19-point, 6-rebound effort, North Carolina received 17 points from Brittany Rountree, 16 points and eight boards from Xylina McDaniel and 10 each from reserve guards Jamie Cherry and Jessica Washington.
