UNC determined to maintain its intensity

Posted Mar 22, 2011
After Sunday's 86-83 victory against Washington, in which UNC had to fight from behind in the final six minutes, Dexter Strickland wanted his team to maintain its drive to keep advancing, not dream of what's ahead. "We've got to keep the same mental focus," Strickland said. "We've got to go out there and just try and win and contribute. Whatever you have to do to help this team win, you've got to do it well."
