North Carolina ends season with loss in NIT championship
Posted Apr 2, 2010
North Carolina's 2010 season ended with a turnover, 700 miles from Indianapolis and the Final Four. The Tar Heels (20-17) made the NIT championship game on a combination of grit, luck, and big late-game plays, but Dayton's pressure and clutch shooting were too much for North Carolina to overcome in the 79-68 final decision. "It's the worst feeling you can have as a coach," Roy Williams said.
