The Bushido

Tarheels Rock the Cavs 99-54! Perhaps, the "baby-Heels" have simply matured ten-fold since the beginning of the season or it could have been the "cavalier" shots taken by Virginia just would not fall, regardless UNC embarrassed the Cavaliers on Senior Night. #13 UNC (20-6, 11-4 ACC) tied for 2nd place in the Conference. UVA are now 14-12, 7-8 ACC.

Speaking of Senior Night, UNC's leading scorer this evening was senior David Noel who scored 19 of his 26-points in the first half and was the first Tarheel since Phil Ford's 34-points against Duke in 1978 to score a career high on Senior Night. Other Seniors honored in the post-game celebration were Byron Sanders and two walk-on players Will Robinson and Thomas Wilkins.

UNC leaders: Reyshawn Terry scored 17-points, (Plebe) Tyler Hansbrough scored 13-points and Marcus Ginyard had 10-points. Six players on the Tarheel squad hit three-pointers this evening and if you saw the game you noticed the Cav's couldn't buy a basket or play defense all night.

I almost forgot the best news that I heard all evening; Florida State upset Duke giving them their first ACC blemish of the year.
