Posted May 13, 2007

Duke eliminated North Carolina from the round of 16 in the NCAA women's tennis tournament last year. This time, there's room for only one of the rivals in the sport's postseason party in Athens, Ga. After earning first-round victories Saturday, the Blue Devils and Tar Heels square off today at 1 p.m. in a second-round match of elite programs at UNC's Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center.
