Heels struggle to get past Rams on way to NIT final
Posted Mar 31, 2010
Maybe UNC fans should start calling point guard Larry Drew II "Mr. Clutch." The sophomore provided late dramatics the third straight NIT game, and his key buckets Tuesday night propelled fourth-seeded UNC past second-seeded Rhode Island 68-67 in overtime at Madison Square Garden in the semifinals. With the victory, the Tar Heels advance to the NIT championship game Thursday, where they will face Dayton (7 p.m., ESPN).
