Tar Heels Leave Basketball Season Opener With Screws To Tighten

Posted Nov 5, 2024
Even with the 14-point victory , it didn't ever feel like North Carolina fully put its foot down. After an Ian Jackson 3-pointer put the Tar Heels ahead 42-26 in the first half, it took just three for Elon to cut the lead to five. In that stretch, the Phoenix outscored UNC 13-2. "It'll be a rough film session, but it'll be really good to learn from it," Seth Trimble said. (Inside Carolina)
