Another long ride home from UNC for No. 4 Duke

Posted Feb 10, 2009
Joanne P. McCallie is finding out just how long an 8-mile bus trip can feel. Another drive down Tobacco Road ended in disappointment for the second-year Duke coach, who remained winless against her team's closest rival. But for these fourth-ranked Blue Devils, this one has to sting worst of all. Duke let an early 12-point lead slip away in the second half and watched No. 8 North Carolina rally for a 75-60 victory Monday night. (Fayetteville Observer)
