Heather Claytor helps bail out Heels
Posted Mar 22, 2009
Heather Claytor wasn't the hero the Tar Heels would have expected. Before North Carolina's 85-80 victory against Central Florida Saturday in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, she hadn't played more than 20 minutes in a game since January, sat out the Tar Heels' loss to Maryland in the ACC Tournament and hadn't hit a shot in a game since Feb. 19. Central Florida's zone defense changed all that.
