UNC notes: Ginyard wins hard-headed title

Posted Mar 17, 2010
UNC got a bit of a scare during its 80-72 win over William and Mary in the first round in the NIT on Tuesday when teammates Marcus Ginyard and Travis Wear collided -- leaving Wear with a bloody cut about his right eye, and Ginyard woozily sitting on the court. "Got hit right in the back -- his right eye to the back-side of my head,'' Ginyard said. "It knocked me down, it was a little fuzzy, and the referee just told me to stay down."
