Tar Heels' rally falls short
Posted Jan 17, 2010
North Carolina had the Will to win in the second half Saturday. Problem was, it didn't have enough of anything - or anyone - else. Junior wing Will Graves scored a career-high 24 points to help the 12th-ranked Tar Heels overcome a 20-point first half deficit. But when his 30-foot desperation game-winner fell off target at the buzzer, it secured No. 20 Georgia Tech's 73-71 victory.
