Butts Buzzer-Beater Lifts UNC Women Over Miami
Posted Jan 27, 2013
Danielle Butts hit a buzzer-beating jumper as time expired to lead No. 11 North Carolina to an improbable 64-62 win over Miami Sunday at BankUnited Center. UNC trailed by five points with 32 seconds left but a Tierra Ruffin-Pratt steal and two free throws tied it before Butts' game-winner. Ruffin-Pratt had 19 points to improve the Tar Heels to 19-2 and 7-1 in ACC play.
