Tar Heels roll in final nonconference tune-up

Posted Jan 3, 2011
UNC held its final dress rehearsal for ACC play Sunday afternoon and breezed past mismatched Saint Francis of Pennsylvania 103-54 at the Smith Center. Sparked by six blocked shots from John Henson and significant help off the bench in both halves, UNC built an 81-42 lead with 7:51 left. The outcome had been settled long before then, however, after the Tar Heels surged to a 52-33 halftime lead. (Winston-Salem Journal)
