Big senior night, wild OT win was just another Manek Monday

Posted Feb 28, 2022
During UNC's pregame warmups, The Bangles’ "Manic Monday" played in the Smith Center. It wasn’t Brady Manek’s favored country music but was appropriate for his senior night. He made it a Manek Monday with 12 of his 22 points in the second half as UNC overcame big Syracuse runs to start each half for an important 88-79 overtime win over Syracuse. (Tar Heel Tribune)
