Heels' Noel builds his case for top honors

Posted Mar 2, 2006

If Wednesday was an audition between Virginia's Sean Singletary and North Carolina's David Noel for the fifth spot on the All-ACC basketball team, Noel won easily. It's not that simple, of course. It's not a two-horse race. On the same night Noel flamed the Cavaliers' defense for 26 points and four assists in a 99-54 UNC romp, Florida State forward Al Thornton had a big performance in the Seminoles' 79-74 victory over top-ranked Duke.
