Tar Heels finally put away BC
Posted Jan 8, 2012
It took a while for UNC’s experience and talent to finally prevail, as the preseason conference favorites led the team with the league’s worst record by just nine with nine minutes left. But the No. 3-ranked Tar Heels finally shook off BC to win 83-60 Saturday. “When the lead was cut down to nine, I think our experience kind of kicked in there, just knowing we need to relax,” UNC sophomore Harrison Barnes said.
