Trimble's Heroics Seal Tar Heels' Win | Tar Heel Basketball News

North Carolina pulled off a heart-pounding 77-74 win over Louisville in a game that went down to the final seconds — even without star Caleb Wilson, Seth Trimble erupted for a career-high 30 points, leading the Tar Heels to victory. Down by just one at halftime, UNC surged after the break, fueled by Trimble’s explosive plays including a crowd-igniting dunk. Louisville’s freshman Mikel Brown answered with 24 points, rallying his team to cut the lead to two with 1 second left. Trimble calmly sank both free throws, then Derek Dixon added a clutch free throw to seal the win as Louisville’s buzzer-beater attempt fell short. Trimble’s dominance was matched by strong contributions from Henri Veesaar and Luka Bogavac, while UNC’s defense held Louisville to 39% shooting and outscored them 40-24 in the paint.
