No. 8 UNC men's basketball blows past Northern Iowa 85-42

Posted Dec 21, 2016
After some choice words from UNC Coach Roy Williams at halftime, Kennedy Meeks came out and took control of the court. Meeks put up 10 points in the second half, bringing his total to 18 on the night. Known for his physicality on offense, Meeks brought that same aggression to the defensive side of the ball, collecting four defensive rebounds. (Daily Tar Heel)
