UNC To Honor Coach Hatchell's 1K Victory On Sunday

CHAPEL HILL - North Carolina Hall of Fame head women's basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell added another line to her amazing list of accomplishments when she won her 1,000th career game last month in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

On Sunday against Carolina's fiercest rival Duke, the UNC athletic department will hold a celebration before tip-off against the Blue Devils to honor Hatchell on her milestone victory. Game time is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. inside Carmichael Arena.

Fans are encouraged to arrive early to the game to ensure they don't miss the ceremony that will take place a few minutes before the Tar Heels and Blue Devils clash for the 96th time in what is widely considered the greatest rivalry in collegiate sports.
