North Carolina vs. Rhode Island in the NIT at Madison Square Garden

Posted Mar 30, 2010
North Carolina will play in the "other" final four tonight, meeting Rhode Island in the semifinals of the NIT at Madison Square Garden in New York. The Tar Heels (19-16) are riding a three-game winning streak, in part because of improved play from point guard Larry Drew. Seniors Deon Thompson and Marcus Ginyard also have been playing with a sense of urgency. (Winston-Salem Journal)
