Before leaving for Cancun, North Carolina's women's basketball players talked about what they were looking forward to doing during their trip to Mexico for the Caribbean Classic. "I'm going to be jet-skiing," point guard Ivory Latta said with a grin on her face. UNC team physician Mario Ciocca has a different set of priorities. After Hurricane Wilma's recent brush with the Yucatan Peninsula, he has health concerns that aren't usually part of the Tar Heels' pregame preparations. (Durham Herald-Sun)
