UNC Tar Heels Dominate Early, Survive Late Scare Against Syracuse Orange + UNC Lady Tar Heels Edge NC State 61-59
Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss the UNC Lady Tar Heels win over the NC State Lady Wolfpack and UNC's win over Syracuse last night.
The North Carolina Tar Heels beat the Syracuse Orange 87-77 last night in a game that was much closer at the end than it looked for most of the night. The Tar Heels dominated early and built a huge lead, going up by as many as 32 points in the second half behind strong performances from Caleb Wilson, who had 22 points and 9 rebounds and Henri Veesaar, who posted 17 points and 11 rebounds. Syracuse didn’t quit, though, staging a late comeback that cut the deficit to six points in the final minute, but UNC was able to close it out at the free-throw line. The win extended UNC’s winning streak and kept them perfect at home, while Syracuse dropped another ACC game despite the strong finish. How do Reese and Pam feel about the near collapse by the Tar Heels?
The UNC Lady Tar Heels defeated the NC State Lady Wolfpack 61-59 last night in a back-and-forth rivalry matchup. The victory gave UNC a big road win in ACC play, while NC State came up just short despite a strong late push.
