It was the only trey the senior for ward made all night. “I don’t think we relied on it,” said UNC sophomore guard Brian Morrison. “I think we were just open, and we were taking them, and we were missing them.” Capel and Morrison shot a com bined 3 of 19 from behind the arc, while the team shot 6 of 34. The Tar Heels will look to improve their 3-point shooting against Davidson at 7 p.m. today at the Smith Center. “Again, we’ve struggled with this for two games,” said UNC coach Matt Doherty. “And I guess I’m going to have to make some hard decisions on who can shoot and who can’t and when we can shoot and when we can’t because they play the zone, and they give you some open looks. If you make them, great, if you don’t, then all of the sudden you start getting tight.” Doherty said Capel, who shot 1 of 9 behind the arc, might have struggled because he was still finding his legs. Capel missed North Carolina’s two exhibition games because of a sore hamstring and returned Friday for his first game since the Blue White Game. In the preseason contests, UNC shot 6 of 33 3-pointers against the EA Sports All-Stars and 6 of 24 from behind the arc against the Nike Elite. In Friday’s game, the Pirates col lapsed inside to keep the ball out of 6-foot-11 Kris Lang’s hands and forced the Tar Heels to try to beat them on the outside. That, coupled with the Tar Heels’ dif ficulty against Hampton’s 2-3 zone, could spell trouble for the Tar Heels again against Doherty’s former boss, Davidson coach Bob McKillop. I--T** Metcalf earned the first ACC honor of the sea son after averaging 21 points through UNC’s first three games.

Metcalf, a guard from Charlotte, is shooting 45.5 percent from 3-point range and hit five 3’s in the games against Evansville and Connecticut. North Carolina returns to action on Tuesday, hosting Western Carolina at 7 p.m. at Carmichael Auditorium. Men's Soccer Tourney Set North Carolina is seeded seventh in the NCAA Tournament and has a bye in the first round. The Tar Heels will face the winner of the game between James Madison and Towson in the second round on Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. at Fetzer Field. The Dukes and the Tigers will meet at Fetzer Field on Friday at 6 p.m. “If I’m an opposing coach, I’m going to play zone,” said Doherty of the Tar Heels’ future matchups. “If I’m Bob McKillop, I’m playing zone. If I’m (Indiana coach) Mike Davis, I’m playing zone until we prove we can do a better job.” The Sports Editor can be reached at sports@unc.edu. SB-95 tfPiiiSl n‘C| $1150) /gM .

But after very little production in losses to Oklahoma, Maryland and Texas, UNC’s wide receivers had little evidence to back up Bailey’s claims. “We weren’t getting a lot of opportu nities to make big plays,” Bailey said Saturday after UNC topped Duke 52-17. “But when we did, we weren’t really getting it done." But on Sept. 22 against Florida State, Sam Aiken’s acrobatic first quarter touchdown during the Tar Heels’ 41-9 was the beginning of the receivers’ resurgence. After catching just two touchdown passes in their first three losses, North Carolina’s receivers have caught 22 touchdown passes in their last eight games, including 18 by the starting trio of Aiken, Bailey and Bosley Allen. Saturday was the latest installment in the Tar Heels’ receivers increased pro duction. The three combined for four touchdowns and 296 yards on 16 catch es in UNC’s dismantling of Duke. Aiken led the way, recording his sec ond consecutive iOO-yard receiving game. The junior caught seven passes for a career-high 156 yards and two touchdowns, including a 72-yard score in the first quarter. North Carolina coach John Bunting said Aiken’s play has been instrumental Game: Davidson at North Carolina Time: 7 p.m. Location: Chapel Hill Radio: 100.7 FM, WCHL-1360 AM Television: FNSN Series Record: UNC Keys for UNC: Stop taking quick 3-pointers. In the preseason and Hampton contests, the Tar Heels showed that they aren't afraid to take an open 3. Problem is, they aren't making them. In the first half on Friday, UNC was 4 of 21 behind the arc. If the Tar Heels can’t get the ball inside, their perimeter shooting has to drastically improve for them to win games. Keys for Davidson: Zone. As Friday's game proved, North Carolina struggles when it can’t get the ball inside to Kris Lang. Lang was 6 of 12 from the floor; Hampton's ability to collapse inside really limited his good touches. UNC Bench: Off the bench, the Tar Heels need a big rebounding performance from Will Johnson and smarter shot selection from the freshmen. Down the stretch Friday, Jackie Manuel had a key assist and used his athletism to help keep UNC in the game. Davidson Bench: The Davidson bench contributed eight points all from Conor Grace in the Wildcats' 65-51 loss to Charlotte. Sophomore Jouni Eho missed all of his six shots off the bench.

Bailey said the screen enables Aiken to use his speed and moves to better devel op a play. “Right now, he has a swagger about him,” Bailey said. “He’s going out there and believing in himself and knowing he can make those plays.” UNC quarterback Darian Durant said strength and conditioning coach Jeff Connors’ offseason program has given Aiken the ability to do things he couldn’t do before. “There’s no way if Sam would’ve caught those balls last year that he would be doing the things he’s doing now,” Durant said. Aiken agreed with his teammate, say ing Connors’ program is a big reason for his success this season. Aiken leads the Tar Heels with 42 catches for 738 yards and eight touchdowns. “It’s made me faster, quicker and made me react to the ball more quickly, especially if the ball’s in the air," Aiken said. “It’s helped me out a lot.” But as much as the wide receivers have improved since the Oklahoma game, they realize much work is left to be done. A Dec. 1 date against Southern Methodist is all that stands between North Carolina and a bowl game, and Bailey said the receivers have to continue to pro duce to make sure UNC is bowl-bound.
