No. 1 Tar Heels Hold Down UNCW for 69-56 Win


Caleb Love and RJ Davis scored 17 points apiece and No. 1 North Carolina began a season of grand expectations by pulling away from UNC Wilmington with a 69-56 victory Monday night. Armando Bacot added 16 points and nine rebounds for the Tar Heels, who were perhaps most impressive at the defensive end. UNCW shot just 29.8 % from the field.

It's a record 10th time that North Carolina has been ranked No. 1 to start a season - one more than rival Duke. Trazarien White scored 19 points for UNCW, which faced a top-ranked team for the first time in program history. Skykeim Phillips had 11 points and Donovan Newby added 10. The Seahawks went 4-for-16 on 3-pointers.

North Carolina led 32-21 at halftime behind Davis' 11 points, but it wasn't easy. It was tied 17-17 with six minutes to go in the first half before a 12-2 run for the Tar Heels, who missed 10 of their first 14 shots prior to that spurt. The Tar Heels have won their first game of a season for 18 years in a row. North Carolina has won 21 consecutive Smith Center openers. North Carolina reserves managed only six points. UNCW held a 37-32 rebounding edge.

Seahawks Reach Finals Of Baha Mar Tourney


It was déjà vu all over again for the UNCW men's basketball team, which led the NCAA Division I ranks with the most double-digit comeback wins during a memorable 27-9 season one year ago. Chalk up the first one of 2022-23. Fueled by the electric play of senior guard Shykeim Phillips and key contributions off the bench, the Seahawks punched their ticket to the title game of the Baha Mar Nassau Championship by rallying past Vermont, 68-66, on Saturday at the Baha Mar Convention Center. UNCW is seeking its 13th in-season tournament championship and the second of Siddle's career after his 2021-22 club won the Asheville Mako Medical Classic in Asheville, N.C.
