End of the Road

Posted Mar 25, 2012
UNC found itself playing with one arm tied behind its back against Kansas, as point guard Kendall Marshall was ruled out for the game. Without Marshall, and playing in the midst of a heavy pro-Kansas crowd, the Tar Heels put forth a mighty effort, but fell apart down the stretch on the way to a 80-67 setback to the Jayhawks, which ends UNC's season at 32-6 and one step short of the Final Four.
