North Carolina's LaToya Pringle

A two-time Miss Basketball in the state of North Carolina, LaToya Pringle knew something was wrong during her freshman year in Chapel Hill. After playing just 11 minutes per game and averaging 4.6 points per contest, Pringle was diagnosed with anemia.

The anemia had left LaToya feeling tired and worn-down for much of her freshman season, but two years later she has emerged as one of UNC???s most feared players. Pringle has been in the starting lineup all season long and has averaged nearly 10 points per game. She became just the second player in school history to record at least 100 blocked shots in a season.

Now full of energy, Pringle has been a major reason for North Carolina???s run to the Women???s Final Four this season. The Tar Heels will take on Tennessee in the national semifinals on Sunday evening.
