Like Latta, freshman Italee Lucas ready to run, lead UNC

Posted Nov 9, 2007

Italee Lucas isn't trying to be another Ivory Latta. However, she appears poised to make the same kind of impact for Carolina. I can be excessively fascinated by small coincidences, such as the fact that the Tar Heels have another standout guard with the initials "I.L." Of course, Carolina's opponents are going to feel "I-L-L" when they get a look at how fast the Tar Heels' hell-on-wheels backcourt will be this season. (ESPN.com)
