In the second round of the NCAA Tournament the Virginia Cavaliers dropped an embarrassing loss to the North Carolina Tar Heels, 63-43. The Louisville win was gross, but this result was far, far uglier.
The final buzzer was a welcome relief
There are barely words to describe Virginia’s performance against North Carolina. The offense in particular was horrendous as the ‘Hoos score just 0.694 points per possession on the night. Virginia shot 18-52 from the floor (34.6%) and 3-11 (27.3%) from beyond the three point arc.
The backcourt in particular struggled as Kihei Clark, Reece Beekman, and Armaan Franklin combined to shoot an ugly 5-24 on the night.
