Hansbrough takes aim at two venerable records

Posted Dec 30, 2007

Tyler Hansbrough, a junior All-America, leads the ACC with 117 attempts and 93 made free throws this season, and has already climbed to fifth and fourth, respectively, on UNC's career list in both categories. He is 522-for-685 over 2 1/3 seasons entering tonight's game against Valparaiso and is on pace to break Lennie Rosenbluth's career records (603 makes, 815 tries) -- set five decades ago.
