Virginia Tech Knocks Off North Carolina 74-70

Posted Feb 5, 2010
Malcolm Delaney scored 21 points, including two key free throws with 36.6 seconds left, and Virginia Tech kept North Carolina in its worst tailspin since a five-game losing streak in 2002-03 with a 74-70 victory Thursday night. Delaney’s free throws doubled the lead to 71-67 for the Hokies, and the only basket the Tar Heels could manage thereafter came at the buzzer, sealing the fifth loss in six games for last year’s national champions.
