DAHLONEGA A pair of new faces led the No. 16 University of North Georgia womens basketball team to a 70-51 win over USC Aiken in the home opener Saturday. Caroline Martin and Josie Earnhardt combined for 31 points in the win.
The Nighthawks didn t gain their first lead until the 3:35 mark in the first quarter when Martin hit her fifth free throw of the period. From there, UNG quickly extended their lead out to 10 early in the second period and never lost the lead.
The Pacers cut the lead to as few as four on three occasions, but the Nighthawks answered each time, including an 11-0 run midway through the third quarter that put the game away for good.
