CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) - Alison Bales served mostly as Duke's stopper this season, the last line of defense under the basket. Even at 6-foot-7, she rarely seemed comfortable on the other end of the floor.
On Tuesday night, with the rest of her teammates struggling, Bales found her rhythm in time to send the second-seeded Blue Devils back to the round of 16 for the eighth year in a row.
The sophomore center scored 10 of her 16 points down the stretch, and Monique Currie led Duke with 21 points in the Blue Devils' 70-65 victory over seventh-seeded Boston College in the Chattanooga Regional.
