Tar Heels get a win to keep hope alive

Posted May 21, 2010
UNC coach Mike Fox didn't take much time to enjoy the Tar Heels' 13-6 victory over Virginia Tech on Thursday. Almost as soon as the traditional end of game handshake was over, UNC's coach was already thinking ahead to today's game (7 p.m.) against the Hokies. "This is like our NCAA Tournament," said Fox, whose team's postseason chances have come down to the final series of the year. "We're basically like single elimination." (Durham Herald-Sun)
