Strong First Half Propels Tar Heels to Easy Victory in Season Opener


The #12th ranked Tar Heels shot 74% from the field in the first half as they beat Oakland 84 to 61 last Friday night to improve to 1 and 0 on the season. James Michael McAdoo led the Heels with 21 points and 9 rebounds. Marcus Paige added 14 points, including four three-pointers. J.P. Tokoto made the most of his first career start as a Tar Heel scoring a career-high 13 points. Propelled by a 17 to 2 run the Heels rushed out of the gates to a commanding 58 to 21 halftime lead. It was most definitely a strong start for a Tar Heels team with a lot of question marks surrounding them prior to this game. The Heels of course were without Senior Leslie McDonald and Junior P.J. Hairston due to pending NCAA investigations.
