North Carolina coach Sylvia Hatchell started worrying about her top-ranked Tar Heels before their tipoff against Purdue. And two hours later, Hatchell was still worrying about her squad, despite its 70-68 win over the fourth-seeded Boilermakers on Sunday at Quicken Loans Arena. "I don't know if they were tight," Hatchell said. "They were out there in the huddle before the game and usually, they're loose, but it was like we were at a funeral."
