Washington-North Carolina matchup
Posted Mar 19, 2011
North Carolina has to keep Isaiah Thomas out of the lane and pound the Huskies with its big front line. Freshman Kendall Marshall will need to keep his poise and not allow UW's pressure to rattle him. Harrison Barnes is an explosive scorer who tallied 40 points in a game last week in the ACC tournament. If he can make shots from the perimeter, he'll open the middle for forwards Tyler Zeller and John Henson.
