Carolina continues their winning streak with an 81-66 victory over Virginia, marking their third consecutive game where they have not trailed. The team’s success can be partially attributed to a lineup change that included Jae’Lyn Withers, who recorded his second double-double of the season. With Withers leading the charge, the Tar Heels had a strong performance from beyond the arc, hitting 56.3 percent of their three-pointers. Despite turnovers bringing the game closer in the second half, Carolina controlled the game from the start with a 21-2 run. Players like Ian Jackson and Cade Tyson contributed significantly off the bench, while Elliot Cadeau’s playmaking skills shined with six assists. The Tar Heels also dominated the boards with a 32-21 rebounding advantage and capitalized on offensive rebounds for second chance points. As they prepare for a quick turnaround against Florida State on Monday, the team looks to extend their winning streak to four games. The victory over Virginia demonstrates improvements in shooting, defense, and overall team chemistry for the Tar Heels under coach Hubert Davis.
