Frigid perimeter shooting sinks Tar Heels at Wake Forest


UNC's perimeter shooting was as frigid as the temperatures outside Joel Coliseum, and that has squarely put the Tar Heels on the NCAA tournament bubble. The Tar Heels continually settled for perimeter shots that, other than a stretch of three consecutive makes in the second half, rarely fell, leading to an ugly 67-66 loss Tuesday at Wake Forest.
