Hansbrough steals show in UNC exhibition win

Posted Nov 5, 2005

As far as introductions go, they don't get much more emphatic. Tyler Hansbrough, aka "Psycho T," blocked the first two shots he saw and scored nine points in the first four minutes Friday night to lead North Carolina past Fayetteville State 94-58. The exhibition basketball game in front of 11,616 at the Smith Center was the Tar Heels' first game action since they won the NCAA championship last season. (Durham Herald-Sun)
