Emergent Nate Britt leads UNC to 92-65 win over Fairfield

CHAPEL HILL

In some ways, Nate Britt said, the decision to change his shooting hand made him feel like a freshman all over again. The junior went from shooting with his left hand as a freshman to shooting with his right as a sophomore.

“Like starting over,” Britt, the North Carolina guard, said Sunday after his team’s 92-65 victory against Fairfield.

He was sitting in the players lounge outside of the UNC locker room at the Smith Center, where the Tar Heels had slogged their way through a victory that, while never in doubt, wasn’t exactly an aesthetic masterpiece.
