Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Monday, January 12, 2004

Duke got its 500th win and 47th straight in the ACC by beating UNC 79-57.

The game was actually closer than the final score suggests. The Tarheels kept it very close until midway through the second half. But then Duke's intensity increased, and UNC's youth and inexperience started to show.

"The score is certainly not indicative of the game, anyone who witnessed the game understands that. I was just really proud of my team. We weathered the storm, stayed together," said Coach G.

Mo Currie had 14 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 assists. Her outside shooting is occasionally suspect, but she might end up being a better player than Beard.
