UNC-Northern Kentucky Postgame Notes

Posted Dec 27, 2013
Tonight's win is UNC's 2,099th. The next win will make UNC the third school with at least 2,100 wins (Kentucky and Kansas). Sophomore guard Marcus Paige had a game-high and career-best nine rebounds. It was the second time in his career that he led UNC in rebounding. Paige hit three three-pointers and finished with 11 points. He is the only Tar Heel to score in double figures in each of the first 12 games. (GoHeels.com)
