American University vs. North Carolina Game Summary
The American University Eagles struggled to get much of anything going on the offensive side of the court as they had a team shooting split of 31.1/22.6/90.9 during the 40 minutes.
The Eagles were doubled in the rebounding category as they had 23 total rebounds. The Eagles struggled to maintain possession as they turned the ball over 13 times, and that is nothing that they should be seeing when they go back to lesser competition than the 10th-ranked team in the nation.
