North Carolina did just enough at the end to keep its NCAA hopes alive in an ugly, physical elimination game. With the season hanging in the balance, the Tar Heels survived going more than half of the second half without a field goal and battled foul trouble to pull out a 68–59 ACC tournament quarterfinal victory Thursday over Wake Forest.
