Posted Dec 16, 2006

North Carolina will end a second consecutive week off because of exams today by playing UNC Asheville in Chapel Hill in only its second game in the past 14 days. Tipoff is 2 p.m. at the Smith Center. The Tar Heels are 7-1 and the Bulldogs are 4-5. Roy Williams of the Tar Heels is hopeful to have the services of Bobby Frasor, who didn't play Dec. 9 in a 94-69 win over High Point because of a sore foot and sore backside. (Winston-Salem Journal)
