Tar Heels' starters beat fatigue to earn victory

Posted Mar 19, 2007

In the second half of North Carolina's 81-67 win over Michigan State on Saturday, North Carolina coach Roy Williams called a timeout. But he did not have anything to say. He just wanted to give his team a "breather." Williams drastically shortened his bench in the second half. Ty Lawson and Tyler Hansbrough each played 20 minutes and Reyshawn Terry was on the floor for 15 – despite migraine issues. (Rocky Mount Telegram)
