Friday's Shootaround: UNC and Syracuse impress at the Garden
Statements at MSG Syracuse 95, Cal 73 : I can't decide if I was more impressed with Syracuse or disappointed in Cal. The Orange were down 5-0 early, but responded with a 26-9 run to take a 12 points lead they never looked back from. Once again, it started with their defense. Cal was unable to ...
