UNC Secures Victory over UNC Asheville

Posted Nov 23, 2021
North Carolina ended its two-game losing streak with a 72-53 win over UNC Asheville on Tuesday, although questions remain about a Tar Heel team that built that an early 20-point lead and then struggled to put its opponent away at the Smith Center. Armando Bacot led all scorers with 22 points on 8-of-14 shooting while also grabbing seven rebounds. (Inside Carolina)
