 CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) - North Carolina has been blessed with a deep roster, while rival North Carolina State has struggled to find healthy bodies. This time, that depth disparity even extended to the coaching staffs.
The fifth-ranked Tar Heels beat N.C. State 83-64 on Wednesday night behind a career-high 24 points from Brandan Wright in a game Wolfpack coach Sidney Lowe left early because of illness.
Missing a coach "can have an effect on a team, but we tried to wear them down," Wright said. "Their big guys were in foul trouble, and that was the key to the game."
