Brownlow: Just Run

Posted Jan 1, 2010
The intricacies of basketball can be mind-boggling. But it can be almost just as mind-boggling how simple the game can be at times. Value the ball. Follow through on your shot. Box out. And in the Carolina system, there are two words you hear from the bench more than the rest: "Rebound!" and "Run!". So as a 6-6 freshman expected to get by on her height, Waltiea Rolle - who did not touch a basketball until she was in the ninth grade - knows what to do. (Tar Heel Blue)
