Aarnisalo, Harris Help No. 21 UNC Beat No. 12 Duke 74-69 in Rivalry Rematch
- On Mar 1, 2026 in Chapel Hill, the Tar Heels defeated Duke, denying Duke an outright ACC title since 2013.
- Coming in, UNC had won 11 of 12, with the lone loss at Duke two weeks ago when Duke had a 21-0 free-throw-attempt advantage.
- In the fourth quarter UNC went 15 for 18 at the free-throw line, with Elina Aarnisalo scoring a career-high 22 points and hitting two free throws at the 3:51 mark, while Nyla Harris was perfect 6-for-6 in that period.
- Duke had already clinched the No. 1 seed for next week's ACC Tournament, and 10th-ranked Louisville can clinch a share of the regular-season crown with a win later Sunday against Notre Dame.
