CANCUN, Mexico — Adrianne Thomas scored 23 points as Arizona State outscored No. 11 North Carolina 17-4 in overtime, for a 94-81 upset win on Friday.

North Carolina’s Diamond DeShields made a bucket to start overtime but Arizona State responded with a 9-0 run. After North Carolina’s second basket, 2 minutes later, Deja Mann hit a 3-pointer to start the final 8-0 run.

In regulation, North Carolina was ahead 72-67 with 1:01 left, but the Tar Heels missed 3 of 4 free throws in the final 15 seconds. That gave the Sun Devils a shot with 9 seconds remaining. Mann missed a 3-pointer, but Thomas got the rebound and made the shot as time expired.

“Coming into this game we had a very confident basketball team,” Sun Devils coach Charli Turner Thorne said. “Everyone who played, played well. We really believed in ourselves that we could play great position defense without fouling and that we could score the basketball in a lot of different ways.”

Thomas led four Arizona State (5-1) players in double figures. Mann had 17 points and Joy Burke added 13.
