UNC Pulls Away From BYU, Loses Lawson For Game

Posted Nov 25, 2007

The Tar Heels came upon a crucial roadblock early in the season: life without Lawson. Ty Lawson rolled his right ankle just two minutes into Saturday’s Las Vegas Invitational championship against Brigham Young, and the injury sent him to the bench for the rest of the game. In his stead, the Tar Heels pulled out a gritty and at times testy 73-63 win against BYU to take the championship. (WRAL.com)
