Chase for No. 1 seed in ACC Tournament reaches abrupt end
Posted Feb 25, 2017
The ACC looked set for a drama-filled fight for the No. 1 seed for next month's tournament. And then, suddenly, eighth-ranked North Carolina claimed it. First the Tar Heels won at Pittsburgh on Saturday afternoon, clinching at least a share of the regular-season title. A few hours later, they also had the top seed for the tournament in Brooklyn thanks to Duke's loss at Miami.
