Bales, Larkins battled it out

Posted Feb 26, 2007

Duke's 6-7 Alison Bales is a more upright, traditional post player whose height alone forces opponents to alter their technique when driving the lane. North Carolina's Erlana Larkins relies on power more than finesse, though she's agile enough to navigate inside on offense. Yet there they were Sunday, each putting her team in position to win with play after play. (Durham Herald-Sun)
