Recap & Analysis: UNC 68 Clemson 59

Posted Feb 28, 2013
It was really a tale of two halves. In the first half, UNC rode six made threes to a 12 point halftime lead. Everyone got into the act with Marcus Paige hitting a pair of threes early and Leslie McDonald hitting back-to-back threes to kick off a 20-6 run to close the half. After intermission UNC was never really threatened but the game was basically a grind. (Tar Heel Blog)
