After tough loss to No. 1 Gamecocks, Banghart says growth comes from being ‘uncomfortable’

CHARLOTTE — Elite programs always deliver tough lessons if you aren’t on your game, and No. 12 North Carolina got a few of those on Sunday. The Tar Heels are 0–2 for the second time in program history, after only hanging with No. 1 South Carolina for the first 11 minutes. The Gamecocks, deep with talent, kept pouring it on in an 84–39 victory in the Spectrum Center at the Ally Tipoff.
