Tar Heels Get Wins No. 17 and 1,900 With Defeat Of Georgia Tech

Posted Jan 21, 2007

Tyler Hansbrough had another huge scoring game at Georgia Tech's expense. Once again, the only things more plentiful than points were bumps and bruises. The North Carolina star scored 18 of his 24 points in the second half, with many coming from the free-throw line, and the fourth-ranked Tar Heels held Georgia Tech to its lowest-scoring game of the season in a 77-61 victory Saturday night.
