Bulldogs hang with Heels

Posted Jan 10, 2008

The talk today will no doubt be of Tyler Hansbrough’s dunk over 7-foot-7 Kenny George. What you won’t see on countless replays is how the UNC Asheville men’s basketball team was able to hang tough throughout its game against top-ranked North Carolina. The Bulldogs fell to the Tar Heels 93-81 on Wednesday night at the Smith Center, but not before they stayed within striking distance during the final minutes. (Asheville Citizen-Times)
