Balance the key for UNC

Posted Apr 7, 2009
As is tradition, every UNC player got the chance to climb the ladder and snip a section of the net after the Tar Heels claimed the NCAA championship Monday night. It seemed especially fitting because in the Tar Heels’ convincing 89-72 triumph over Michigan State, it seemed like every member of the team had a piece of the victory. “Everyone stepped up at the right time, and we’ve got the national championship,” said Ed Davis.
