The Tar Heels overcame an early nine-point deficit to defeat Valparaiso, 85-63, behind the All-American’s 25 points and five rebounds. “I think tonight it was just the fact that Christmas was around the corner and we have such a big break and everybody was thinking about going home,” Hansbrough said.
