Quick Hitters – UNC vs. Iona (NCAA Tournament 1st Round)

Posted Mar 23, 2019
It’s always a question how freshmen will respond to their first NCAA Tournament game. While most of the team struggled in the first half, Coby White and Nassir Little led the way offensively. White scored eight of UNC’s first 12. Little picked up his second foul with 8:49 left before halftime, but stayed in the game and scored UNC's next three buckets. (Armchair All-Americans)
