UNC flips switch to postseason mode with strong tourney opener
Posted Mar 9, 2017
UNC clicked into postseason mode by turning up the defensive intensity and rolling to a 78-53 beating of Miami in its ACC tournament opener. The win sends the Tar Heels into a semifinal matchup with Duke that will have much more at stake than a rubber match between rivals. It was a complete reversal from the first time the Tar Heels played Miami.
