Northern Iowa 71 #1 Carolina 67

Carolina played their first true road game of the season with a trip to Cedar Falls Iowa to play Northern Iowa.

After a quick start by both teams the first half of Carolina's game against Northern Iowa quickly became a rock fight of a basketball game. Carolina led for the almost the entire half after the first few minutes with the sole exception being a single possession where Northern Iowa had a one point lead. Kennedy Meeks scored Carolina's first 8 points and led the Heels early on. The Heels were aided by Justin Jackson's best half of the year.
