Before Saturday’s game, North Carolina honored East Carolina coach Jeff Lebo, one of the most accurate shooters in UNC history. Then the Tar Heels made the Pirates look like a team of Jeff Lebos. ECU scored 61 second-half points and cut a 16-point halftime deficit to four before the 21st-ranked Tar Heels came away with a 93-87 win. (Durham Herald-Sun)
