Heels Triumphant in Winter Wonderland
Posted Dec 21, 2008
Leave it to Tyler Hansbrough to lift No. 1 North Carolina out of the candy cane and sugar plum-induced fog that saturated the United Center on Saturday. The Tar Heels overcame an early nine-point deficit to defeat Valparaiso, 85-63, behind the All-American’s 25 points and five rebounds. “I think tonight it was just the fact that Christmas was around the corner and we have such a big break and everybody was thinking about going home,” Hansbrough said.
