Tar Heels look in better health for rematch with Northern Iowa

Posted Dec 21, 2016
Looks like UNC could be nearly at full strength for Wednesday’s game against Northern Iowa. The Tar Heels weren’t that way a year ago when they were ranked No. 1 and lost to the Panthers. The Tar Heels figure to be in a better situation in the rematch, particularly with Joel Berry back from a sprained ankle that kept him out of the lineup earlier this month. (Burlington Times News)
