North Carolina edges Lady Vols, cruises into Final Four

Posted Mar 29, 2006

The littlest Tar Heel put North Carolina back on the biggest stage in women's hoops. Ivory Latta ran things at both ends of the floor and sent top-seeded North Carolina to its first Final Four since its 1994 title season with a 75-63 win over Tennessee in the Cleveland Regional final on Tuesday night. The 5-foot-6 (with heels on, maybe) junior All-American finished with 20 points, nine assists and four steals in 40 minutes. (USA Today)
