Tar Heels Bitten by Belmont

Posted Nov 18, 2013
Belmont’s 3-point shooting has carried it to six NCAA Tournaments in eight years. On Sunday, it led the Bruins to one of the biggest upsets in the history of the Smith Center. J.J. Mann (28 points) hit three 3s in the final 62 seconds, including the go-ahead shot with 14 seconds left as Belmont scored the final eight points and defeated No. 12 North Carolina 83-80.
