1. After a second half that was much improved, Carolina won a game very similar to last year's contest against College of Charleston, 102-86.
2. After registering a one-point, one-rebound first half, Armando Bacot was a different player in the final 20 minutes. He finished with 28 points and six rebounds. Hubert Davis opened the second half by going straight to Bacot in the post. That seemed to get him on track, and he was a dominant force in the second half. Carolina outscored Charleston 59-36 in the second half and shot 19-for-21 from two-point range.
