CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) -North Carolina has brought another NCAA championship trophy home to campus.
The Tar Heels joined thousands of blue-clad fans at the Smith Center on Tuesday for a rally to celebrate the program’s fifth national title and its first since 2005.
Coach Roy Williams was the last to arrive, and he entered carrying the trophy and the net he helped cut down at Ford Field in Detroit.
Less than 24 hours earlier, the Tar Heels beat Michigan State 89-72 for the title. Before leaving Detroit, Williams said he doesn’t have a timetable for when juniors Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington will decide if they will enter the NBA draft.
