Hannah Simental dropped 16 points and the conference's top free-throw shooter finished 11-for-14 at the charity stripe.
Averee Kleinhans added 14 points and went a perfect 6-for-6 at the free-throw line. Kleinhans also handed out a game-high six assists.
Gabi Fields and Lauren Andrews each scored seven points.
As a team, UNC shot 48.9 percent (23-for-47) from the floor, while holding WSU to 37.7 percent (23-for-61) from the field.
The Bears continue their road trip Thursday at Portland State and Saturday at Sacramento State. Next home game is Thursday, February 16 versus Idaho at 12 p.m. for Health and Hoops.
