Tar Heels fight back from terrible first half, but fall short as RJ Davis’ career ends

Posted Mar 21, 2025
Carolina nearly made up for one of its worst halves of the season, refusing to exit the NCAA tournament without a fight. It just wasn’t enough. The No. 11-seed Tar Heels stormed back from a 22-point deficit with a 27-10 run to come within two points with 69 seconds left, but missed golden chances at the end in a 71-64 loss Friday to No. 6-seed Ole Miss.
