Harrison Barnes, Tar Heels slip by Tigers

Posted Feb 13, 2011
The team’s leading scorer believed he hadn’t been aggressive enough in a 3-of-8 performance in a draining loss to Duke on Wednesday, and he wasn’t about to make the same mistake twice. So Harrison Barnes drove to the basket, spun around a defender and finished with a dunk over Milton Jennings to fire up his team, silence the crowd and spur No. 20 UNC to a 64-62 victory at Littlejohn Coliseum.
