Rapid Reaction: UNC 97, Appalachian St. 82

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- A quick look at No. 5/6 North Carolina’s 97-82 victory over Appalachian State on Saturday: What it means: UNC senior forward Tyler Zeller, after an inconsistent start to his season, might finally be back on track. The senior 7-footer scored 31 points – one off his career high – and pulled down 10 rebounds to push UNC to victory. How it happened: The Tar Heels took an early 13-2 lead (on 7 points from Zeller) before Mountaineers senior guard Omar Carter, who had started the previous nine games, came off the bench.
