Tyler Zeller, Tar Heels taking loss hard

Posted Mar 29, 2011
Tyler Zeller was hurting Sunday night, more than he had all season. UNC's basketball season had ended barely an hour earlier, after a 76-69 loss to Kentucky in the NCAA East Regional championship game. The abruptness of the end was nearly overwhelming. "Any time the season's over, it's a killer," said Zeller, a junior center. "I don't even know what I'm doing in my week. When you don't have practice, you don't have anything."
