Sunday night I drove down to Georgia Tech’s campus to once again shoot their basketball team as they took on the North Carolina Tarheels. I figure most people expected North Carolina to win, the arena was mostly filled with Carolina Blue and Tech hasn’t had the greatest season this year. However, Tech shocked everyone and rolled by 20 points over the team that is only 2 years removed from a national title. Surprisingly, Tech is on a 4 game win streak over the Tarheels. Either way, the fans were really excited and Tech’s head coach Paul Hewitt had the team greet the fans who did show up after the game instead of going straight to the locker room like usual.
