UNC Blitzes Wolfpack

Posted Feb 22, 2012
After North Carolina outrebounded N.C. State by 22 and outscored the Wolfpack in the paint by 22 on Jan. 26, N.C. State decided it wasn’t going to get beat inside by the Tar Heels in Tuesday night’s rematch. Instead, the Wolfpack went into a zone defense, daring No. 7 UNC to beat them from the perimeter. So the Tar Heels did just that en route to an 86-74 win at a rowdy RBC Center. (Durham Herald-Sun)
