Posted Jan 22, 2009
Clemson's still 0-for-Chapel Hill. The streak hit 54 with UNC's 94-70 win over the Tigers on Wednesday night. Clemson-killer Wayne Ellington did it again, scoring a game-high 25 points, including a 3-pointer with 3 seconds left in the first half to start the avalanche that buried the Tigers. The Tar Heels closed the first half and opened the second with a 20-4 run to extend their NCAA-best home winning streak against Clemson to 54 games. (Raleigh News & Observer)
