No. 1 vs No. 2

Posted Feb 25, 2006

"Ivory has great style," coach Sylvia Hatchell had said. "She is a great kid and she wants to excite the crowd. She makes us go." The 5-foot-6 junior has been making Carolina go to places the program has never this season. The Heels reached a No. 1 ranking during the season for the first time before a loss to Maryland, and have a record of 24-1 overall and 11-1 in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Today at 2 p.m. the No. 1 Tar Heels (25-1, 12-1 ACC) face Duke (25-1, 12-1 ACC) in sold-out Carmichael Auditorium. (Carolina Blue)
