UNC women to open NCAAs today without Sylvia Hatchell

Posted Mar 23, 2014
An edge the Tar Heels anticipated was the return of veteran coach Sylvia Hatchell today. Hatchell, who just completed a final round of cancer treatment, has missed the entire season and had hoped to return today, but that’s been pushed back. UNC might need all the advantages they do have at 3 p.m. in Carmichael Arena today (ESPN) when they meet No. 13 seed UT Martin. (Durham Herald-Sun)
