Tyler Hansbrough helps No. 3 North Carolina beat Wake Forest

Posted Feb 25, 2008

Tyler Hansbrough banged around and scored in the paint while Wayne Ellington knocked down outside shots. It was more than enough to keep third-ranked North Carolina atop the Atlantic Coast Conference. Hansbrough had 29 points to continue his late-season surge while Ellington added 17 in the Tar Heels' 89-73 win over Wake Forest on Sunday night, helping them move a half-game ahead of Duke.
