Tar Heels take down top-ranked Duke
BY BRANDON PARKER
SENIOR WRITER
Less than five minutes into
Monday’s contest between No. 12
North Carolina and No. 1 Duke, 5-
foot-6 inch UNC guard Ivory
swooped into the lane for a one
handed lay-up attempt, only to have
her shot denied by 6-foot-7 inch
Blue Devil center Allison Bales.
But Latta proved to be unfazed
by the block, as she emerged from
the crowd in the paint nodding her
head and clapping her hands.
Just after the 17-minute mark
in the first half,
Latta made a
similar drive
into a forest of
Duke players,
one of whom

was Bales. This time the sophomore
double-clutched and powered in a
lay-up, drawing a foul.
In the Tar Heels’ last 19 games
against a No. 1-ranked team and in
their previous 12 encounters with
Duke, UNC had been denied. But
the Tar Heels’ used an intrepid atti
tude similar to Latta’s to exorcise
the past and knock off the Blue
Devils by a score of 56-51 in the
Smith Center.
“It’s been four years, and for us
to beat the number one team and it
be Duke, it’s just a double victory for
me,” said UNC senior Nikita Bell.
The contest was not a pretty one,
as both teams shot under 30 percent
from the field and had 44 combined
turnovers compared to just 14 total
assists for the game. UNC needed a
16-1 run at the end of the first half
just to make the score 26-13 in its
favor at the break.
But it was this scoring streak
and UNC’s ability to match Duke
shot for shot down the stretch that
allowed the Tar Heels to pull out
the victory.
“Every game that we’ve had this
year, we’ve jumped out to a pretty
good lead, and then we relaxed, and
we lost a couple of those games,” said
UNC coach Sylvia Hatchell. “So we
were just tryingto stay focused, and
the kids were just ready to play.”
UNC (15-3,3-2 in the ACC) played
suffocating defense on Duke (18-2,
4-1), as it held star forward Monique
Currie to just two first-half points
and had 18 steals many of which
turned into breakaway lay-ins.
“Coach stressed how we needed

against Duke Monday. The Tar Heel defense held Duke to only 51 points.
to get in the lane, deny, play intense,
and that’s all I was focused on, just
being intense,” said Bell, who had the
responsibility of shadowing Currie
for most of the game.
But Currie woke up in the second
half to score 22 of her game-high 24
points, and the Blue Devils gradually
cut UNC’s 15-point lead down to just
two with 1:42 remaining.
Latta’s two free throws gave the
Tar Heels a 55-51 lead with 16 sec
onds remaining before Currie was
fouled in the backcourt by Bell.
However, Currie, who was 8-for
-8 at the line to that point, could not
find the bottom of the net on either
of her attempts. And after UNC’s
La’Tangela Atkinson sunk one out
of two from the charity stripe with
10 seconds left, the game was out of
reach for the Blue Devils.
Despite the historic loss, Duke
coach Gail Goestenkors still found
some solace in her team’s effort.
“We’re going to learn a lot from
this game,” she said. “To have played
the game we played and still have
an opportunity to win is a sign of
good things that could have been.”
But as the buzzer sounded and
the scoreboard showed that the Tar
Heels had defeated Duke for the first
time in five years, it was the UNC
players and fans who were rushing
the court and jumping in jubilation.
And while Hatchell was proud
of her team’s accomplishment, she
was careful not to exaggerate the
magnitude of such a win.

Defense reappears for UNC
BY JACOB KARABELL
SENIOR WRITER
After North Carolina fell to
Maryland 92-77 on Jan. 9, UNC
coach Sylvia Hatchell said she was
late to the press room because she
was looking for someone to play
defense or rebound for her team.
Apparently, she discovered that
Monday.
The Tar Heels held Duke to its
lowest point total of the season,
51, on 14-of-60 shooting. They
also outrebounded the Blue Devils
—a team that averaged 11.3 more
rebounds a game than its oppo
nents heading into the contest at
the Smith Center.
“I give all the credit in the world
to their defense,” said Duke coach
Gail Goestenkors. “They did a great
job. It was the most pressure we’ve
seen all year, and their traps were
very effective.”
That pressure and forceful
defense allowed the Tar Heels to
gain control of the game late in the
first half. With both teams severely
struggling to convert in a half-court
offense, it was the North Carolina
defense that created fast-break
opportunities —and Hatchell’s
team converted.
With the Tar Heels already hav
ing opened up a 17-12 lead with
less than three minutes to play in
the opening frame, consecutive
steals by Nikita Bell, La’Tangela
Atkinson and Camille Little helped
push the margin to 10. The Blue
Devils ended the half with just 13
points, while the Tar Heels’ 16-1
run before the end of the half left
UNC with 26 points entering the
locker room.
“When they get their defense
set, it’s hard to get shots in there
with (center) Alison (Bales),”
Hatchell said. “We were trying to
mix it up some, and I really felt
like if we could get our transi
tion game going, whether it be
off turnovers we got some of
that or off our fast break in
general, that that would play into
our favor.”
The play of Duke star Monique
Currie also worked in favor of the
Tar Heels in the first half. Currie, a
national player of the year candi

date, scored just two points in the
first half on l-for-6 shooting.
“I guess we didn’t stay poised,
but that’s what we were trying
to do,” Currie said. “We were try
ing to take care of things, not get
caught up in their transition, just
try to slow things down and run
our stuff.”
Currie did bring the Blue Devils
back almost single-handedly in the
second half, finishing with a game
high 24 points.
None, however, came after the
1:42 mark, as the junior missed a
pull-up jumper that would have
tied the game at 53. She also
missed two free throws that would
have cut the UNC lead to two with
15 seconds remaining, helping to
seal the Tar Heels’ upset.
“I just wanted to step it up a
whole ’nother level and just let it
all hang loose,” said UNC senior
Nikita Bell, who accumulated five
steals in the game. “(Hatchell)
gave us that responsibility
always be intense —and I try to
do my job.”

This course is offered to health care professionals (nurses, physicians,
pharmacists, medical technologists) and clinical researchers (study investi
gators, project managers, research scientists). It is designed to serve as an
introduction to the many facets of clinical research for those new to the
field and for those health care professionals considering a career change.
Hospitals and pharmaceutical companies seek out nurses and other health
care professionals for key roles in clinical research because they have a
sound scientific knowledge base, good interpersonal skills, and experience
working with other health care professionals. This course can serve also as
an overview of the drug development process for specialized clinical pro
fessionals currently active in clinical research (clinical monitors, study co
ordinators, IRB members, study investigators, etc). This course will be
especially useful to those individuals assuming project management roles
for the first time. No prerequisites are required for this course.
