Heels show little rust

Posted Dec 17, 2006

After a week off from game action and a busy stretch loaded with final exams, North Carolina players admit they were eager to uncork their energy Saturday on UNC-Asheville. “We were well-rested,” said Brandan Wright. “You could tell we had a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of legs.” The result for No. 3 UNC was a 93-62 pounding of the visiting Bulldogs, a victory sparked by the Tar Heels’ activity all over the court.
