## Resource

North Carolina narrowly edged Wake Forest 87-84 in a gritty, back-and-forth battle that showcased the Demon Deacons’ resilience despite their losing record. After building a 11-point halftime lead, the Tar Heels were pushed to the brink as Wake Forest clawed back to within one point with just four minutes left. Carolina held strong, with Caleb Wilson and Henri Veesaar leading the charge with double-doubles and big scoring nights. Wake Forest’s Juke Harris and Nate Calmese each poured in 28 points in a valiant effort — proving they’re no pushovers, even if they fell just short.
