Heels Rain 3’s in 108-91 Victory

Posted Feb 4, 2009

Unfortunately for the Terrapins, they never expected the Tar Heels to drill 16 of their 25 three-point attempts. "I've said a lot of times that we can really shoot the ball," Roy Williams told reporters during his postgame press conference. "We shot the Dickens out of it tonight." (Inside Carolina)
