nice warm up before taking on Gonzaga in the NIT Wednesday night.

BOILING SPRINGS – Gardner-Webb will face No. 2 North Carolina on Sunday in a game set for live television on FSN South (Fox) at 1 pm ET at the Dean E. Smith Center.

The Tar Heels (2-0) are the highest-ranked team – and only the second ranked team – that Gardner-Webb has played at the Division I level. GWU fell at No. 21 Ohio State last December.

GWU (0-2) is coming off a long road trip to Lubbock, Texas, for the 2006 CBE Classic – losing a hard-fought game in the opener to host Texas Tech (86-74) and falling to preseason MAC favorite Akron – the 8th-ranked team in the mid-major ranks – 89-61.

North Carolina topped Sacred Heart and Winthrop in the East Regional of the Preseason NIT, and will host Gardner-Webb for the second year in a row. Last November 19, GWU stayed close with the defending national champions for 40 minutes, before a David Noel three with less than three seconds left lifted the Tar Heels to an 83-80 win.

For Gardner-Webb this season, sophomore Ricky McPhee (Lilburn, Ga.) is averaging 15.0 ppg through two starts, including a career-high 22 in the opener at Texas Tech. That topped McPhee’s previous career scoring high, which was 21 points in last year’s game at North Carolina.

So Carolina pretty much put Garner Webb in their grave today. The final score was:

UNC - 103
GW - 50

Brandon Wright led UNC scoring with 21, with Hansbrough - 18, Ellington - 19, and so on and so forth.

This was a great game to prepare for an upcoming non-conference that will really tell the tale as to how this team is made up.

We have:

Gonzaga - Nov. 22
#4 Ohio St. - Nov. 29
#22 Kentucky - Dec. 2
