UNC-Virginia: Postgame Quotes

Posted Feb 8, 2009
"It was an unusual game because the first half it was like pulling teeth -- we couldn't get a shot to go in. Then I thought we were doing okay on the defensive end, just couldn't make anything. In the first 16 minutes of the second half I thought we were very good, but the last four minutes I was disappointed in how we played. You look at Ty Lawson, 9 assists, zero turnovers, Tyler Hansbrough with 13 rebounds. I think those kind of things are awfully important." (Inside Carolina)
