No. 5 Tar Heels Pull Away to Defeat Miami
Posted Jan 18, 2009
For the first time all year, Wayne Ellington couldn't miss. It made fifth-ranked North Carolina's offense finally look as potent as everyone expected. Tyler Hansbrough added 24 points for the Tar Heels, who used a 13-0 run to end the first half and push ahead for good. But it was Ellington, who had struggled with his shot much of the season, who got North Carolina rolling with a dazzling shooting display that turned a close game into a rout.
