One 'nasty' rout leaves Heels at a loss for words

Posted Mar 7, 2010
Fifteen seconds in Saturday's game between No. 4 Duke and North Carolina at Cameron Indoor Stadium, Marcus Ginyard hit a free throw to give the Tar Heels the first point of the game. Turns out it would be the Tar Heels' only lead of the game and the closest the score would ever be. The Blue Devils then hit their next three shots -- all 3-pointers -- to go up 9-3 two minutes into the game, and the Tar Heels could never recover as Duke routed UNC 82-50. (Durham Herald-Sun)
