A closer look: Virginia 61, North Carolina 52

Posted Jan 6, 2013
Virginia, we learned again Sunday, is really good defensively. North Carolina, we learned again Sunday, is not. The Cavaliers frustrated the Tar Heels into a 37.3 shooting night to topple UNC 61-52 in both teams’ ACC opener. It marked the Tar Heels’ first loss at John Paul Jones Arena in five tries, and they have now dropped three straight road games. (ESPN.com)
