Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. UNCW

Posted Dec 5, 2018
It wasn't altogether attractive, but it was a win, as North Carolina used a better second half to ease past UNCW 97-68. Roy Williams kept his team in the locker room almost the full 15-minute halftime and was rewarded with a better second half. Although partially aided by ice-cold Seahawk shooting, UNC also turned up the defensive intensity to create some of those errant shots. (GoHeels.com)
