TL;DR

Carolina flipped Charlottesville by turning Virginia's possessions into fast breaks with a first-half surge and a number of decisive steals that jump-started their offense. The Tar Heels leveraged quick hit-aheads, including Derek Dixon feeding Caleb Wilson and Jarin Stevenson, to fuel a transition-heavy attack, with Stevenson scoring a season-best 17 as UNC held off No. 14 Virginia 85-80.
