Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Iona

Posted Mar 22, 2019
Everyone doing OK? North Carolina advances to the second round with an 88-73 win over Iona. The second half was tremendous. Iona couldn't sustain their perimeter marksmanship and UNC's offense was much more crisp. Bolstered by energetic play from Nassir Little, UNC made as many field goals in the first ten minutes of the second half as they did in the entire first half. (GoHeels.com)
