North Carolina storms back with fight but falls short against Duke

Posted Mar 15, 2025
North Carolina showed the fight of an NCAA tournament team in rallying from a 24-point deficit to nearly upset No. 1 Duke. Now comes the wait to see if the Tar Heels have done enough after a heartbreaking 74-71 loss to the Blue Devils in the ACC Tournament semifinals Friday. "I can’t be more proud of a team than I am right now," said UNC coach Hubert Davis. (Tar Heel Tribune)
