NCAA Tourney - Round of 64

(16) Lamar vs. (1) North Carolina

Lamar's reward for their excellent late season play? A matchup against #1 North Carolina. The Cards didn't necessarily play a bad game, but they were just completely outmatched by a much more talented squad. UNC took an 11 pt lead in the first 10 minutes and it never got closer than that.

North Carolina 90, Lamar 64
