March 31, Two Hours Before Tip
Hey Tar Heel fans! We're getting ready to play! We wish you all were here! There's gonna be a lot of LSU fans tonight but we're used to playing in hostile territory! Adversity is what we always face! Hope you guys watch and support!

March 29, Hours After Beating Louisville
Hello Tar Heel Fans!!
Heather Claytor reporting after a (what I've heard so many times today) "heart-attack" game. Sorry for all of you who we scared, but you had faith in us right?! We are having fun in New Orleans. The people are so nice and the food is AMAZING. Wish you guys could all be here with us, because there were a lot of gold and purple dressed people in that gym today! We hope to continue having your support throughout the rest of the tournament. I'll be writing again soon!!
Thanks for the support, #14
March 27, New Orleans
Hey Tar Heel Fans!
Heather Claytor again! Hope all is well with everyone. We have just arrived in New Orleans. We got back the other night after our game at 4:45 a.m. and all had class and such yesterday so we are pretty tired. We can't wait to play Louisville. Hope to see you guys there!!

March 23, Sunday Night After Beating Bucknell
Hello Tar Heel Fans!
Today was our first game against Bucknell. We had a little trouble with our intensity coming out (since it had been two weeks since our last game, but we don't make excuses :-D) but we ended up pulling out a 35 point victory. After we played today, we watched half of the Georgia/Iowa game to see who our next opponent would be. Looks like Georgia!
When we returned to the hotel, LaToya, Terri Jo (our athletic trainer) and I went horseback riding on the beach! It was so much fun. Since I grew up on a farm it was pretty much second nature, but seeing LaToya was a trip! I wish you guys could've seen it. It was a very relaxing ride. We had the evening off to rest and have curfew coming up soon. I hope to see most of you at our upcoming games!

March 23, Three hours before UNC vs. Bucknell
Hello all you Carolina fans!
Heather Claytor number 14 here, writing to let you know how things are going here in Virginia Beach. We left Friday around 12:00 for Virginia Beach, Virginia. We arrived here around 4:30 and then had dinner at Outback at 5:00. After dinner we basically just layed around our hotel rooms. We are staying at the Hilton hotel right on the beach and the view is amazing. We are actually 30 minutes away from the gym, but the stay is worth it.
We had practice and media yesterday and then movies and dinner then the evening was ours. We couldn't walk anywhere so about 12 of us were in mine and my roommates (Iman McFarland) room watching Juno. We have so much fun together whether we are on or off the court. We are excited to play today and can't wait until we get to see some of our fans out there rooting us on! We know we have to come out ready, becuase everyone is playing for "no tomorrow". Well I will write to you guys again soon!
