Carolina turns up defense in 76-61 win over Virginia
Posted Feb 8, 2009
The last time the North Carolina men’s basketball team appeared in the Smith Center, its up-tempo offense played to near perfection, creating a bevy of open highlight-reel dunks and three-pointers in Wednesday’s pasting of Maryland 108-91. But Saturday, the UNC offense found itself on the opposite end of the spectrum in the first half against Virginia, as the Cavaliers utilized zone defense to put the brakes on the Tar Heels’ attack.
