Heels hold off Pack
Posted Feb 19, 2009
Some people pound punching bags when they're frustrated. Tyler Hansbrough beats up on N.C. State. Once again, UNC's big man dunked back from a single-digit effort with a huge game against the Wolfpack, this time scoring 27 points to lead the third-ranked Tar Heels to a 89-80 victory at the Smith Center. It marked another big bounce-back by the senior forward, who scored only eight points at Miami on Sunday.
