No. 3 Tar Heel Women Take Down Wolfpack, 79-70

Posted Jan 14, 2008

After learning she had a broken bone in her left hand, Erlana Larkins knew she could sit out a few weeks and hope to recover in time to help North Carolina stay in the ACC title chase. Instead, she opted to play through the pain, a decision that is keeping her third-ranked Tar Heels among the nation's elite. Larkins had 22 points and eight rebounds to help North Carolina beat North Carolina State 79-70 on Sunday. (Tar Heel Blue)
