Posted Jan 6, 2018
The Tar Heels had played Virginia at John Paul Jones Arena four times in the previous five seasons heading into Saturday’s game, with seniors Joel Berry and Theo Pinson having made two trips each. They’d heard noise, dealt with the tempo and faced that suffocating pack-line defense before. And yet, they still haven’t figured out a way to deal with it. (North State Journal)
