Hansbrough might never break this one

Posted Dec 18, 2008
It took three decades – and a player willing to stay all four years – to put Phil Ford's school career record for points in jeopardy; senior Tyler Hansbrough needs nine points to break it tonight. But one North Carolina mark that might not ever be broken is Lennie Rosenbluth's 26.9 points per game average, set in 1954-57. “I don't think there's going to be many people touching that,” Hansbrough said.
