UNC Victorious Over Virginia, 76-61
Posted Feb 8, 2009
Even Tyler Hansbrough has his limits. That's where Wayne Ellington has been coming in for No. 3 North Carolina. Ellington scored 12 of his 20 points in the second half of his latest big game, helping the Tar Heels shake off a sluggish start and beat Virginia 76-61 on Saturday for their seventh straight win. Hansbrough had 15 points and 13 rebounds but was 4-for-11 shooting against a zone defense determined to make him a nonfactor.
