It’s a quick turnaround for the North Carolina Tar Heels after losing their first game of the season against Villanova on Thursday. They will return to the court on Friday afternoon for a matchup against No. 20 Arkansas on the final day of the Battle 4 Atlantis.
After opening the tournament off with a win over Northern Iowa, UNC fell short in overtime against Villanova. It was a tough loss for the Tar Heels but the good news with these tournaments is that they have another chance to redeem themselves right away.
Arkansas is 4-2 going into the game, with a loss to Memphis on Thursday as well as a loss to UNC-Greensboro earlier this season.
The Razorbacks will play a similar style as the Wildcats did on Thursday and it likely will be another physical game. UNC is going to need to bring it if they want to avoid having two losses on the year.
