Tar Heels still recall being 'embarrassed'

Posted Feb 8, 2011
There were many bad days for UNC last season as the Tar Heels struggled to a 20-17 finish and missed the NCAA Tournament after winning the national championship in 2009. But perhaps the worst day of all was March 6,2010, when the Tar Heels traveled to Cameron Indoor Stadium and were blown out 82-50 by arch rival Duke. "I was actually embarrassed," UNC sophomore Dexter Strickland said. (Durham Herald-Sun)
