Tar Heel women could make a run to Final Four

Posted Mar 19, 2009
North Carolina isn't a No. 1 seed this time around, but Coach Sylvia Hatchell still likes her team's chances in the NCAA Women's Tournament. The Tar Heels (27-6) are seeded No. 3 and will face Central Florida on Saturday in a first-round game in Chattanooga, Tenn. "Having been a No. 1 seed the last four years, this year will be a little bit different, but I think our schedule has prepared us for this challenge," Hatchell said. (Winston-Salem Journal)
