    Richard Howell scored 18 points — all in the first half — and North Carolina State continued its late-season surge in the ACC by beating Georgia Tech 70-57 on Sunday. With Howell contained in the second half, C.J. Leslie scored 11 of his 13 points in the final 20 minutes as N.C. State […]

    North Carolina coach Roy Williams has wanted James Michael McAdoo to play more aggressively. It was easy to see why Sunday, when a more assertive McAdoo took it right at Florida State and sparked the Tar Heels to an easy win. McAdoo scored 17 of his 21 points in the first half to […]

    Top-five foes collide at Cameron Indoor Stadium at 6 p.m. on Saturday, as the fifth-ranked Miami Hurricanes can secure the Atlantic Coast Conference crown outright with a win over the third-ranked Duke Blue Devils. Duke’s 73-68 loss at Virginia earlier this week took a little bit of steam out of what was supposed […]

  Joe Harris had just scored a career-high 36 points, essentially half of his team’s total in a 73-68 victory against No. 3 Duke, and the junior guard was talking about “a team effort” and how the Cavaliers played “sound defense.” Joe, was that the best performance of your basketball career? “I guess you could […]

    The North Carolina Tar Heels look to notch their ninth 20-win season in a row as they visit Littlejohn Coliseum for an Atlantic Coast Conference tilt against the Clemson Tigers. Roy Williams’s Tar Heels are not quite as dominant as they were a season ago, but they have picked up some momentum in […]

  Scouts have focused on the Tar Heels’ defense, for the most part, over the past few seasons; nine UNC defenders have been selected in the last three drafts. But Cooper might be North Carolina’s highest-drafted lineman since tackle Harris Barton was drafted in the first round (No. 22 overall) by the San Francisco 49ers […]

  Allen was a two time all-state left tackle at Tift County High School. He also fared quite well in the post season, as he played in the Georgia North/South All-Star Classic and earned MVP honors at the Nike Training Camp in Athens, Georgia. In 2008, Allen took a redshirt, but still contributed for the […]

    North Carolina Central University’s stingy second-half defense along with clutch free-throw shooting was just enough for the maroon and gray to earn the 51-47 victory over the Aggies of North Carolina A&T inside a sold out McDougald-McLendon Gym on Saturday afternoon. The Eagle defense held the Aggies to 5-for-24 (20.8 percent) shooting from […]

It’s been a rocky season for the Tarheels, but they were able to pull it together tonight to beat rival NC State.
