UNC men's basketball routs Long Beach State, 93-67

The North Carolina men's basketball team continued its early-season success on Tuesday night, routing the Long Beach State 49ers, 93-67.

What happened?

The Tar Heels used a string of runs to dismantle Long Beach State in this one, starting their first run on the opening tip. UNC ran off to a 14-point lead before Long Beach State even made a basket — a total of seven minutes and 39 seconds passed before the 49ers got on the board.

Joel Berry picked up two quick fouls in the first five minutes of the game, but he still managed to carry a bulk of the UNC scoring.
