UNC Basketball Edges Pitt in Thrilling Finish

The UNC Tar Heels narrowly defeated the Pitt Panthers 67-66, ending a three-game losing streak against them. This victory was crucial for UNC, improving their record to 14-10 overall and 7-5 in the ACC, and offering hope for inclusion in March Madness bracketology. The game was marked by a strong start from UNC, but they struggled with scoring droughts and foul trouble, allowing Pitt to remain competitive. Key performances included RJ Davis, who scored a game-high 18 points, and Ven-Allen Lubin, who contributed significantly in the final moments. Despite a poor shooting second half, the Tar Heels' defensive hustle in the last minutes secured the win. UNC now prepares to face the Clemson Tigers, aiming to build on this momentum.
