No. 2 North Carolina Women Fall to No. 12 Maryland

Posted Jan 26, 2009
After Marissa Coleman provided the spark for 12th-ranked Maryland in the first half, Kristi Toliver took over during the final 20 minutes. The two were too much for No. 2 North Carolina, now mired in its worst losing streak in seven years after falling 77-71 Sunday night. Coleman scored 18 points before intermission, and Toliver tallied 18 in the second half. Coleman finished with 22 points, and Toliver had 23. (Tar Heel Blue)
