Latta hurt as she hits game winner for UNC

Posted Mar 27, 2006

Ivory Latta made the winning shot and then was carried from the floor - by North Carolina's trainers. The tough and tiny point guard hit a driving layup with 2.8 seconds left before injuring her left leg as the top-seeded Tar Heels advanced in the NCAA tournament with a 70-68 win Sunday over Purdue in the semifinals of the Cleveland Regional.
