Sylvia Hatchell Gets No. 800 In OT Thriller
Posted Jan 12, 2009
Her 800th career victory in hand, Sylvia Hatchell could finally relax. "I was about to think it wasn't going to happen there for a while," she said with a chuckle while addressing the home crowd afterward. It almost didn't. Rashanda McCants scored 16 points and her second-ranked Tar Heels dominated overtime to beat NC State 75-66 on Sunday, making Hatchell just the fourth women's coach to reach the 800-win mark.
