Posted Mar 11, 2018
“My team is getting better,” Roy Williams said after Saturday’s championship game loss to No. 1 Virginia. “We’ve got some bigger goals in front of us, and we’ll need to get back to work this week.” The Tar Heels’ three-win run to the ACC tourney final also helped earn them a favorable draw as the No. 2 seed in the West Region, starting close to home in Charlotte.
