Texas Tech, and No. 7 Old Dominion. It is

. ' Although North Carolina's women's
basketball team is very vourig; it has. ,
streaked to a -10-2 record, including an
80-79 upset of No. 9 Maryland in Car
michael Auditorium Saturday. ' . .
The. only two Tar Heel losses thus far
have come at the hands of teams ranked
in trie Top 20 an 81-69 setback at the
hands of Alabama in early December and '
a 75-59 loss to Tennessee Jan. 2. UNC
coach Jennifer Alley said she has been
pleased with the progress of her team to
this point.
. "I'm very proud of this team," Alley
said. "1 think we have a team that has
grown over the course of the year, a team
that has been tested and proven itself 12
times this season.
"They have proved they can play."
The Tar Heels list six freshmen on their
11 -player roster, and Alley said the
development of those freshmen has been
a key in the early season.
"Our freshmen have really grown and
matured as players this season," Alley
said. "With the exception of one or two
games, we have used every player on the
roster, and that should have an effect as a
maturing factor."
But with all the youth on the 1984
squad, an old mainstay has emerged as
the team leader in both scoring and re
bounding. Senior Tresa Brown is averaging 22.4
points per game while shooting 57.7 per
cent from the field and 86 percent from
the free throw line this year. She is also
pulling down 10.4 rebounds per contest.
Brown has led the Tar Heels in scoring
in 1 1 of 12 games, including a 38-point ef
fort against Fairleigh Dickinson in
Chapel Hill Monday. That performance
gave Brown a school record for points in
a game and moved her into third place on
UNC's all-time . scoring list with 1554
points. Brown needs 51 points to pass
Georgia Tech head coach Bernie
McGlade, who played her collegiate ball
at UNC, and move into second place.
But Alley said Brown was one of the
few bright spots for North Carolina in the
76-69 win over the outmanned Fairleigh
Dickinson. Alley said her team lacked in
tensity in the game. .
Battle heats up over 'Season Ticket'

Conference is getting unfair criticism
as fans and cable television debate,
whether some basketball games should
be available only to viewers who pay

Marvin A. "Skeeter" Francis, as
sistant conference commissioner, said
the conference "has really been made to
look like the bad guy" in the Season
Ticket dispute that last week ended up
in New Hanover County District Court.

"Everybody has to prepare to play
with intensity for every opponent, and we
didn't do that against Fairleigh Dickin
son," Alley said. "We can't just be in
tense for conference opponents and have
.that kind of sloppy play against a non
conference opponent who sees us as a
; very big game on theirschedule.
- "We. knew they would scramble and
scrap and hustle. They never gave up. We
got a 15-18 point lead, and they kept
coming .back.
"I" felt our performance was sub-par.
We lacked a lot of intensity defensively.
We wanted to put up a lot of pressure on
defense, and I don't think 1 ever saw
anybody deny a wing pass.
"Tresa was mentally ready to play. We
' had a situation where we could get a
mismatch, and our people did a good job
of getting the ball to her. She had been
frustrated with her offense since the Ten
nessee game, but that was just a tremen
dous offensive effort on her part."
Brown tallied her 38 points on 19 of 24
shots from the field, including eight-of-nine
in the second half. She also added a
team-high eight rebounds.
"1 wasn't aware of how close I was to
the records," Brown said. "But getting
the records makes me feel good, and it
, gives me more desire to continue to work
hard. My intensity level wasn't really that
high, but 1 was mentally ready to play.
"I was able to play my game and to
play the team game as well. That's my
job." '
The victory over Fairleigh Dickinson
was Alley's 200th career win, but Alley
said she wasn't even aware that she had
the opportunity for No. 200 until assis
tant coach Mike Peckham told the team
before the game.
"I'm the worst for point totals and
won-lost marks, so I wasn't even aware
of it," Alley said. "I'm pleased that it
happened, but if we have many more like
this one, I might not get 300 more," she
added, referring to catching men's coach
Dean Smith, who recorded his 500th
career win earlier this. year.
Brown's performance against Fairleigh
Dickinson was an encore for her
27-point, 11-rebound showing against
Maryland Saturday night in the Tar
Heels' first Atlantic Coast Conference
game of the season. That performance
and we'd have piped-in crowd noises."
