Elliot Cadeau impressive, R.J. Davis poised as UNC holds off FSU

Posted Jan 27, 2024
A first-half stretch Saturday proved freshman point guard Elliot Cadeau is essential with his ability to whip by defenders and deliver feathery passes. UNC needed to withstand a furious Florida State rally that sliced a 10-point second-half lead to two with 2:36 left. But R.J. Davis scored the game’s last five points as the Tar Heels held on for a 75-68 victory. (Tar Heel Tribune)
