UNC ventures over to Duke tonight

Posted Mar 4, 2006

“Taking each possession more importantly is definitely something we’ve gotten a lot better at,” North Carolina freshman Marcus Ginyard said. That is why the Tar Heels say they’re better prepared for tonight’s rematch with their archrival. Close games seem to be the norm when North Carolina and Duke meet. Six of the last seven games have been decided by five points or less, which has often magnified the final possession or two. (Shelby Star)
