Posted Jan 22, 2018
Two players can’t save a game alone, especially in a hostile ACC environment. That was the situation that Luke Maye and Joel Berry found themselves in Monday night at Cassell Coliseum. The duo combined for 46 points - each scoring 23 - on 19-of-35 shooting, but were left stranded and without support in No. 10 North Carolina’s 80-69 upset loss to Virginia Tech. (Inside Carolina)
