Chansky: Meadowlands Madness

Posted Mar 23, 2007

The highest-lowest weekend in Carolina's Meadowlands memory book had to be the 1987 East Regional, before which the Tar Heels ran the ACC table (14-0) and looked like a shoo-in to get back to the Final Four first time since 1982. On Friday night, freshman J.R. Reid drove, spun and shot his way to 31 points as he out-dueled Notre Dame's David Rivers (23 points) in the regional semifinal. (Tar Heel Blue)
