Posted Jan 26, 2022
Armando Bacot, who notched his first career 20-rebound game against Virginia on Jan. 8, now has two such performances in his last five games. He and assistant coach Sean May (three) own all five 20-rebound games in the Smith Center. Bacot's big outing against Virginia Tech was his 33rd career double-double — tied for the 11th most in UNC history. (Inside Carolina)
