Hansbrough, Heels shake off rust

Posted Dec 14, 2008
When Tyler Hansbrough hit his first five shots Saturday night, Bobby Frasor figured the senior might go ahead and surpass Phil Ford's three-decades-old career record for points. As it is, Hansbrough now needs only five more field goals to do it. Playing in his first home game of the season, the All-American scored 26 points and pulled down nine rebounds in the Tar Heels' 100-84 victory over Oral Roberts -- all with a cut on his left knee that required two stitches after the game.
