Michigan never trailed and used a 20-9 run in the middle of the second quarter to build a 37-21 lead.

Janele Brown had 16 points and Meghan Andersen and Kaety L’Amoreaux both had 15 points for Fairfield (3-1).

Fairfield led 19-11 after the first quarter, but North Carolina outscored the Stags, 26-6, in the second quarter. The Tar Heels opened the fourth quarter on a 15-4 run for a 74-49 lead.
