Record of Futility

Posted Dec 8, 2012
The last time a team struggled to score points in the first half like East Tennessee State did on Saturday, the Dean E. Smith Center crowd comforted ACC rival N.C. State with a standing ovation after a made basket four years ago. The Bucs scored the game’s first basket 94 seconds into the game. Their next points arrived on a field goal with 12:27 to play in the first half. (Inside Carolina)
