“We haven’t had any practices since the day before the William and Mary game,” Williams said. “We were coming in (to New York) on Sunday and practicing here Sunday night, but flights were canceled. We did have a shootaround but had only 10 out of 16 players.”
North Carolina, like most schools, almost never arrives at an out-of-state game on the day of the contest. The Tar Heels (9-4) were forced to change their plans after a blizzard dumped nearly two feet of snow on the ground in New York.
It didn’t seem to matter as they began the game with a 14-2 run and never looked back – hitting 11 of 23 three-pointers.
“Key to the game is a lot of guys came off the bench and we outscored them 38-13,” Williams said.
Jonathan Mitchell scored 20 points for the Scarlet Knights (9-3), who had their six-game winning streak end.
Rutgers scored the first five points of the second half before North Carolina answered with seven straight to put the game away.
