Dascenzo: Tar Heels' half was good enough
Posted Mar 24, 2007
It took UNC longer than it wanted, but so what? This time of year, when it's one and done, it's not how you start but how you finish, and the Tar Heels finished with style in their 74-64 win Friday night over Southern California in the NCAA East Regional semifinal. One way or another, Roy Williams' team figured it would come out of an early game funk, partly because of how well the Trojans were playing, and eventually begin to take charge.
