Pitt’s clash with North Carolina will pull 1 team out of its slump

Posted Jan 18, 2020
There is no need to place additional importance on the men’s basketball game Saturday at Petersen Events Center matching a team stuck in a three-way tie for 11th-place and another that is one slot from the bottom of the 15-team ACC. But Pitt and North Carolina better start winning soon. North Carolina (8-8, 1-4) has lost three in a row — all at home. (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)
