Friday game report: Marquette vs. North Carolina

Posted Mar 26, 2011
Player of the Game: Coming in, much was made of the North Carolina Tar Heels' tall timber. In the end, it was Tyler Zeller who stood tallest. The 7-foot junior had a monster game, finishing with 27 points, 12 rebounds, four assists and three steals in just 27 minutes of action. Zeller hit 10 of 19 shots and 7 of 8 free throws, while also grabbing seven of his boards on the offensive end. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)
