Jim Larrañaga, Ja'Quan Newton Post-UNC Press Conference Quotes

Posted Mar 9, 2018
Jim Larrañaga: We felt like there were three things we had to do, and we didn't do two of them. Carolina deserves a lot of credit for that. They are a tremendous team in the open court, and we were not able to get back and set our defense enough times throughout the contest to put ourselves in a position to win the game. We gave up way too many lay-ups." (ASAP Sports)
