By Grace Raynor Assistant Sports Editor

They sit there together — the starting five of the North Carolina women’s basketball team — all donning gray sweat suits from head to toe, all looking at each other, hop- ing that the other four are finding this press conference as funny as they themselves are.

Goofy. Relaxed.
