During North Carolina's 84-66 first round win over Lipscomb, UNC freshman center Sterling Manley was calling for his own rebounds. "Sterling played big-time yesterday," Theo Pinson said. "There were times he was telling us to move because he wanted the rebound. I was like, ‘All right, get it, big fella,'" Pinson added. "That’s the aggressiveness we need from him." (Inside Carolina)
