Tar Heels Put Up Fight But Fall to UConn In Jimmy V Classic

The No. 9 Tar Heels lot to No. 5 Connecticut 87-76 in the Jimmy V Classic at Madison Square Garden, as the reigning NCAA champion Huskies proved to be too much in this top-10 bout. UNC couldn’t get closer than within five points of UConn in the second half. (Inside Carolina)
