Fellow Tar Heel,
In a weekend that featured many memorable moments (we were all Lehigh fans on Friday night) and huge upsets, Roy’s Boys kept their eyes on the prize and advanced convincingly in both games. However, the wins did not come without a cost, as Kendal Marshall went down with a wrist injury. Butters had surgery on Monday and is now in a removable cast, but regardless of who plays, it’s the front of the jersey that matters and the goal is still a national title. The New York Carolina Club invites you to game watch parties for all of UNC’s NCAA tournament games!

A season that began on an aircraft carrier in the San Diego harbor and has seen exhilarating highs and its share of tough moments has finally come to its defining moment. Since becoming Carolina’s coach, Roy Williams has set one goal above all others:  winning the national title. The Heels have certainly been battle tested and will use their experience as a springboard to launch them on their quest to New Orleans. The brackets are set and the road to the final four begins now! The New York Carolina Club invites you to game watch parties for all of UNC’s NCAA tournament games!

I don’t have to tell you what happened on Saturday night. I don’t have to tell you that yet another Senior Night at Duke was dominated by Roy’s boys. I don’t have to tell you that they shut down Franklin Street as soon as the final buzzer rang. However, it is worth repeating that it was an amazing week for Carolina. The Tar Heels started off the week by earning Roy Williams his 250th win at UNC in a tough game at Virginia. Against Maryland, the Tar Heels had an emotional Senior Night which also saw Kendall Marshall set the UNC single-season assist record. Finally, Carolina saved the best for last as it won its 29th ACC regular-season championship in a game at Duke that was absolute domination. March is only getting started though and the ACC Tournament is this week. The New York Carolina Club invites you to a game watch party for each of the Heels’ ACC Tournament games!

Roy’s boys are paving a tried and true championship path by getting hot late in the season. The Heels faced immense pressure to continue the streak against Clemson at home and entered a very hostile environment against NC State in Raleigh. By picking up convincing wins in both games, Carolina displayed the mental toughness and competitive drive that is required of a champion. The schedule doesn’t get any easier this week though, as the Heels go against a ranked Virginia squad on the road. Following that it is the always special Senior Day against Maryland where one of the greatest tradition in college basketball will continue:  allowing all Seniors to start. Finally, on March 3 comes the rematch that we have all been waiting for as Carolina invades Cameron to take on Duke. The New York Carolina Club invites you to game watch parties as the Heels take on Virginia, Maryland, and Duke!

Carolina fought back after a tough loss to Duke by beating two likely NCAA teams in Virginia and Miami. In doing so, Roy picked up his 100th ACC win at Carolina, becoming the second fastest coach in ACC history to have 100 wins. The streaks and numbers continue this week as the Heels take on Clemson at home, where Carolina has an all-time record of 55-0 against the Tigers. Following that, the Heels look to continue the rude welcome to NC State’s new head coach by going into Raleigh and taking another win over the Wolfpack.

There is no way to sugar coat the final two minutes of the game on Wednesday night. The only solace that we can take is that the memory of a loss in February is fleeting when compared to the memories of wins in March and April.

During his tenure in Chapel Hill, Roy Williams has made a habit of passing milestones:  2 national championships, 2,000 wins, etc. Last night the Heels passed another milestone in recording their 600th ACC win, becoming the only school to have hit the mark. Carolina is not looking to sit on 600 for long though as they enter a key Super Bowl weekend game at Maryland on Saturday. Directly on the Heels of that game, Carolina returns to the Dean Dome looking to extend the longest home winning streak in school history against, who else, Duke!
