About This Game
Saint Peter's tournament Cinderella story came to an end in the Elite Eight, as North Carolina's size and depth proved too much to overcome. Though the Peacocks remained competitive with sharp perimeter defense—recording seven blocks—they were outmuscled on the boards, where the Tar Heels dominated 52-35. UNC's balanced offensive attack featured 19 made field goals and six three-pointers, while Saint Peter's struggled to generate consistent scoring, connecting on just 14 field goals and four threes. The rebounding advantage translated directly to second-chance opportunities and defensive control; UNC's 13 made free throws compared to Saint Peter's nine tells the story of a team that consistently got to the rim. Despite the Peacocks' disciplined play and spirited defense, the gap in firepower and rebounding proved insurmountable. Every possession from this memorable tournament battle is now available as a Gameprint, letting fans own a piece of March's intensity.
