Racers get kick out of matchup with Tar Heels
Posted Mar 13, 2006
Murray State's only NCAA Tournament victory was against a team from Tobacco Road, 14th-ranked North Carolina State, 78-75, in 1988. Murray will seek its second victory Friday against another Tobacco Road school, defending NCAA champion and third-seeded North Carolina. "I'm just glad some of those guys from last year are in the NBA," Murray Coach Mick Cronin said after learning that his 14th-seeded Racers would be playing the Tar Heels.
