Tar Heels lose in semis for second straight season

Posted Apr 2, 2007

This was a game where even Duke fans probably felt bad for North Carolina. And that's saying something. The Tar Heels looked to have a shot at the national championship in their sites. They were up 12 points with 8:18 left in their semifinal game Sunday. Ivory Latta had just done her flexing routine, and Tennessee's defense appeared to be breaking down. And then it all fell apart for the Tar Heels. (ESPN.com)
