No. 9 North Carolina withstood a second half charge by a veteran Bucknell squad in Joel Berry’s first game back to secure a 93-81 victory Wednesday. Freshman center Sterling Manley flirted with a double-double in his Tar Heel debut (nine points, eight rebounds) and exploded past that threshold against the Bison with 16 points and 13 rebounds in 16 minutes.
