Tar Heels improve endgame

Posted Jan 18, 2008

North Carolina was 2-6 last season in games decided by eight or fewer points. But after the 83-82 nail-biter at Georgia Tech on Wednesday, the top-ranked Tar Heels are 3-0 now in down-to-the-wire duels. The difference? "I just think that at the right time, this team is coming up with that extra push, that extra effort that's putting us over the top," forward Marcus Ginyard said. (Raleigh News & Observer)
