Tar Heels advance to NIT final four
Posted Mar 24, 2010
It’s not the final four UNC dreamed of at the beginning of the season, but nonetheless, the Tar Heels are still alive for a championship – in the NIT. Led by Deon Thompson’s first double double since November, a career-high-tying 14 points from freshman John Henson and another key late-game drive to the basket by point guard Larry Drew II, the fourth-seeded Tar Heels beat No. 2 seed UAB 60-55 Tuesday night.
