Game blog: UNC takes down NC State 74-61

Posted Feb 13, 2010
Well, it wasn't exactly an "Instant Classic", but North Carolina finally got back in the win column, holding off NC State. It was the Larry Drew show late for UNC, has he had a personal run of 7 straight points that basically sealed the deal for UNC. Carolina now looks ahead to a trip to Georgia Tech on Tuesday. A big positive for UNC was not only the play of Drew late, but also Leslie McDonald off of the bench. (WRAL Sports Fan)
