Tar Heels advance to Sweet Sixteen

Posted Mar 20, 2011
North Carolina coach Roy Williams is known for his penchant for peculiar ties, the word “dadgum” and run-and-gun basketball. That meant Sunday was Williams’ favorite kind of day. Sporting a pink-and-blue number and spouting off several family-friendly expletives, the coach guided UNC (28-7) to a sprinting victory over Washington (24-11) 86-83. (Reese News)
