A closer look: UNC 112, Chaminade 70

Posted Nov 21, 2012
Why UNC won: The Tar Heels led 20-9 just four minutes into the game, quite the contrast to the UNC team that managed only 18 points against Butler in the entire first half the night before. The Heels also were more aggressive around the basket, and shot better than 62 percent for the game. The Silverswords might be a Division II team, but this time, UNC showed up ready to play, and to play hard. (ESPN.com)
