Ginyard, Thompson celebrate Senior Night with win number 2,000

Posted Mar 3, 2010
Even though most of the season has been a horror story for North Carolina, its seniors got to feel a bit of a fairy-tale ending in their final home game. Not only did the Tar Heels keep Roy Williams' streak of senior-night perfection alive, they also earned the program's 2,000th victory by beating Miami 69-62. "I think it lined up pretty well," senior forward Deon Thompson said. "This day was pretty perfect." (Carolina Blue)
