Tar Heels can’t overcome foul trouble, 34 points from Villanova’s Eric Dixon in 83-81 overtime loss

Posted Nov 23, 2023
When Armando Bacot wasn’t a productive scorer last season, North Carolina struggled to win. The No. 14 Tar Heels hoped that might be different this season, but foul trouble kept them from overcoming Villanova on Thursday. The Wildcats pulled out an 83–81 overtime victory at the Imperial Arena in the Bahamas in the semifinals of the Battle 4 Atlantis. (Tar Heel Tribune)
