Armando Bacot uses his size, physicality to out-muscle Wagner en-route to a first round NCAA win
Posted Mar 21, 2024
Armando Bacot made his return to the NCAA tournament Thursday, picking up right where he left off in 2022. He needed just 20 minutes to record his seventh straight NCAA tournament double-double in a 90-62 first-round win for UNC. Bacot dominated down low all game, exploiting Wagner’s lack of size en route to a 20-point, 15-rebound afternoon.
