Double-doubles in loss Bacot recorded 19 points (9-10 FG, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds and two assists over 36 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 72-59 loss to Virginia Tech.
Impact Bacot did what he could to carry UNC in this game, but the rest of the team didn't help him, and as a result, the Tar Heels couldn't reach the ACC Tournament final to set up a matchup against Duke. Bacot posted six double-doubles in his final seven games of the campaign, and he should play a big role for the team in the upcoming NCAA Tournament.
