Tar Heels Battle On

Posted Mar 11, 2006

Whether is was stage fright or a brutally physical battle with Virginia, the Tar Heels all feel rather lucky to be advancing to the ACC Tourney semifinals after falling behind by 10 early on and letting the Cavaliers hang around for the better part of the evening. "Coach said on a scale of 1-10 we probably played a 2 and we're lucky to get out of here with a win," said senior David Noel. (Tar Heel Blue)
