Heels Humbled - Texas bursts past UNC with late run

Posted Dec 20, 2009
North Carolina made a determined late run but Texas held firm and pulled away in the final seven minutes for a 103-90 victory yesterday afternoon in the first basketball game in Cowboys Stadium. The Tar Heels sliced a 17-point Longhorns lead to 82-78 with 6:58 left. Larry Drew's 3-point attempt from the top of the key fell well short, however, and the Longhorns grabbed the rebound to begin the game's decisive run. (Winston-Salem Journal)
