North Carolina 75, UC Riverside 51
Posted Mar 19, 2006
The top-seeded and top-ranked Tar Heels only turned on their fun-and-run game in spurts Saturday night, and that was more than enough for a 75-51 victory over No. 16 seed UC Riverside in the first round of the Cleveland Regional. Rashanda McCants scored 15 points, Latta added 14, Erlana Larkins 13 and LaToya Pringle 11 as the Tar Heels scored the first bucket and never looked back in what coach Sylvia Hatchell called a sloppy game.
