After a week of hype, North Carolina vs. Duke lived up to it all, culminating in a Tar Heels win to send Mike Krzyzewski into retirement.
The win was sweet for North Carolina, a team that already spoiled Coach K’s final home game. So, how was the team’s Twitter account going to announce victory for such a momentous occasion?
They used one word: “Farewell.”
The final dagger came from guard Caleb Love, who hit a three-pointer while up one point with under 30 seconds left in the game. Love finished with 28 points in the game to lead all scorers, including North Carolina’s final six points.
