Tar Heels say they need to learn from losses

Posted Jan 12, 2009
Shock, anger, disappointment and disbelief filled North Carolina's locker room last night after a 92-89 loss to Wake Forest in Joel Coliseum. UNC dropped to 0-2 in the ACC for the first time since the 1997 season, Dean Smith's last in Chapel Hill as coach. Danny Green has experienced many highs and lows in his four seasons at UNC, and occupying the ACC cellar has not been one of them. (Winston-Salem Journal)
