No. 2 Lady Heels Earn Marquee Win With 70-57 Triumph Over No. 4 Vols

Posted Dec 4, 2006

Erlana Larkins didn't do much against Tennessee last time, and North Carolina teammate Ivory Latta wouldn't let her forget it. "Although Ivory and everybody else said I needed to redeem myself, I tried not to think about that," Larkins said. "Brand new game. Brand new year." And brand new result for Larkins - even though the same team won. Larkins had 17 points and 12 rebounds to lead No. 2 North Carolina to a 70-57 victory over No. 4 Tennessee on Sunday night.
