Second-half push sends Heels to a blowout win

Posted Dec 23, 2009
After starting at small forward for the first 11 games of the season, UNC's Will Graves said it wasn't weird to be on the sidelines for the start of Tuesday's game against Marshall. After all, the redshirt junior averaged just 7.3 minutes his first two years and was suspended last season. Still, Graves responded to his first-half benching with 13 points and career-high 10 rebounds to help the 10th-ranked Tar Heels beat the Thundering Herd 98-61. (Durham Herald-Sun)
