North Carolina efficient in their demolitions

Posted Mar 24, 2008

While North Carolina was thumping its first two opponents in the NCAA tournament with 100-point games, most stunning was how flawlessly they executed the poundings. Against Mt. St. Mary's on Friday and Arkansas on Sunday, guards Ty Lawson and Quentin Thomas combined for 21 assists and no turnovers. The top-seeded Tar Heels turned the ball over only 16 times combined in their first two East regional games. (Chicago Tribune)
