South Regional top seed North Carolina used its potent uptempo offense to run out the Gonzaga Bulldogs, 98-77, in their Sweet Sixteen
ACC Player of the Year Ty Lawson led the Tar Heels' charge with 19 points and 9 assists with only 1 turnover. All-American senior and ACC leading scorer Tyler Hansbrough added a double-double performance with 24 points and 10 rebounds.
North Carolina will try to gun for an NCAA-leading 18th Final Four appearance when they face second seed Oklahoma tomorrow. The game will showcase what should be a great matchup between the last two national players of the year in Hansbrough (consensus 2008) and Blake Griffin (likely consensus 2009).
