Tar Heels come out firing in season opener

Posted Nov 9, 2013
The Tar Heels put together one of their best shooting performances in the Roy Williams era Friday. They made 23 of 31 field goals in the first half, good for a 74.2 percentage — the highest percentage for any half in Williams’ 11 years as UNC’s coach. It was a checklist-checking kind of night for Williams, who rattled off all of the encouraging signs he saw in the 84-61 season-opening win. (Daily Tar Heel)
