UNC rolls past Blake Griffin, Sooners
Posted Mar 30, 2009
Tyler Hansbrough deferred to his teammates — just as he’d hinted he might. This was no one-on-one matchup down low. Instead, North Carolina rolled past Blake Griffin and Oklahoma with a total team effort. Ty Lawson scored 19 points and top-seeded North Carolina overcame a quiet game from Hansbrough to beat the Sooners 72-60 Sunday in the South Regional final.
