Routine win over Duke no downer for Tar Heels
Posted Mar 9, 2009
Did anyone really think that Tyler Hansbrough's postgame Senior Day tears would be anything but joyous? The Blue Devils haven't come that far, despite the improvements they've made since the first time these teams in Durham last month. UNC answered every challenge, including three huge three-point plays down the stretch, to pull away for a routine 79-71 victory in its rivalry game.
