After the North Carolina men's basketball team defeated Syracuse on Saturday evening, here are three takeaways about the team's performance with only two games left in the regular season.
Coby White has been inconsistent throughout the entire season but may have finally found his groove in the Association. He is averaging just 12.3 points per game, but coupled his 35 point game, with a pair of 33 point performances on Monday and Tuesday.
Without junior center Janelle Bailey, UNC struggled to get into any kind of rhythm offensively or defensively, contributing to a blowout loss at the hands of a sub-.500 team.
The UNC softball team is in the midst of a slump after dropping its fifth non-conference game in a row, despite a chance late in the 7th inning to take the lead.
The Tar Heels, on a six-game losing streak after Thursday's game against Notre Dame, will look to avoid being swept by the Blue Devils in their final home game of the season. Here are three keys to a North Carolina victory on Sunday.
In his last two games for the Orange, Elijah Hughes has combined for 45 points against Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh, two teams that defeated North Carolina this year. He'll certainly be one of the guys UNC looks to slow down in Saturday's game against Syracuse.
After a long 2019 season, one North Carolina pitcher got to shine on Tuesday afternoon. Redshirt first-year Max Alba got his first start for the Tar Heels on Tuesday in their win against North Carolina A&T after recovering from Tommy John surgery in 2018.
With a full season back in Chapel Hill under his belt, Mack Brown made it clear at his offseason press conference that he has raised his expectations for UNC in 2020 and has a plan in place for surpassing last season's success.
Coming off a series loss against Dallas Baptist, the North Carolina baseball team cruised to an 8-0 victory over North Carolina A&T behind three runs from outfielder Dylan Harris.
Throughout the Tar Heels' worst season since 2001-02, Brooks has been the team's steadiest player, scoring key bucket after key bucket for a team that has desperately needed every single one. He has weathered the storm, and when North Carolina needed him in a game that everyone in Chapel Hill cares far more than they will admit, he delivered.
You know the head-to-head numbers by heart (even though you claim not to). Under Roy Williams, the Tar Heels have 31 — now 32 — victories over their little brother in Raleigh, to just four losses. North Carolina has been felled by the Wolfpack just once in the last 10 tries. You claim it doesn't matter, but it always has — especially this year, the worst of the Daggum Era. UNC has had N.C. State's number, and that didn't change on Tuesday night.
After starting 2020 with a 4-0 record, it is clear that the No. 4 Tar Heels have turned a corner and have a chance to return to the glory they experienced in 2016, when they won the national championship.
For my money, no moment beats the most beautiful one across all of sports: when a basketball player catches fire and the world (including everyone else on the court) has no other choice but to sit back and watch magic happen.
Roy Williams made it clear on his Tuesday presser that neither he nor his team will be giving up despite the Tar Heels' 10-17 record. The Hall of Fame coach is in the midst of his first losing season of his 32-year head coaching career.
Ryan Gerard led the way for the Tar Heels when the junior shot a 6-under-par 66 in the final round to finish in second place at the John Burns Intercollegiate.
In the third meeting between the teams in eight days, the North Carolina gymnastics team defeated New Hampshire by a score of 196.100-195.300 on Sunday afternoon in Durham.
The No. 8 North Carolina wrestling team capped off a difficult schedule in the month of February with a 22-9 loss to No. 5 Arizona State, but the defeat hasn't stopped the squad from setting its sights on a conference title.
Consistency from UNC’s relay teams and contributions from nearly every athlete helped the women’s swimming and diving teams score 839 points, good for a strong fourth-place finish in Greensboro under first-year head coach Mark Gangloff.
The men’s 4x400 relay team made its way into the history books on Friday as the North Carolina track and field team competed in the two-day JDL DMR Invitational over the weekend in Winston Salem, N.C.
The UNC men's lacrosse team defeated Johns Hopkins 17-10 on Saturday. The team's 17 goals were the most North Carolina has ever scored against the Blue Jays.
