North Carolina, Cormac Ryan silence Duke to clinch ACC title outright​

Cormac Ryan scored a season-high 31 points, including a huge 3-pointer with 1:38 left, to help No. 7 North carolina beat No. 9 Duke 84-79 on Saturday night, claiming the Atlantic Coast Conference's regular-season title outright for the first time in seven years. Ryan made 8 of 12 shots and 6 of 8 3s to help UNC turn away push after push from its fierce rival -- and Ryan made sure to let Duke's famous Cameron Crazies hear it with some excited reactions. Ryan closed the game with two clinching free throws with 4.7 seconds left for the Tar Heels (25-6, 17-3 ACC).

Harrison Ingram added 14 points and 10 rebounds for the Tar Heels, who shot 50% for the game. UNC ran out to a 15-point lead with a dominant start, then stayed in control all night. Kyle Fillipowski had 23 points to lead the Blue Devils (24-7, 15-5), who had retired Hall of Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski making a rare courtside appearance for the game. Duke got as close as a point early in the second half but never completely recovered from a Ryan-led flurry out of the gate. The Tar Heels led 40-31 at halftime.

Vanderbilt's Jerry Stackhouse out after 5 seasons​

Jerry Stackhouse has been informed that he will not return for a sixth season as Vanderbilts's coach, the school announced Thursday. The former North Carolina and NBA player signed a contract extension before the 2022-23 season, and the school is now expected to pay a significant buyout. Details are not available because Vanderbilt is a private institution. The move comes after the Commodores blew a 15-point second-half lead in Wednesday's season-ending overtime loss to Arkansas in the SEC tournament, bringing a 9-23 campaign to an end. Stackhouse, an All-American at UNC and two-time All-Star during his 18-year NBA career, was hired by Vanderbilt in 2019 to replace Bryce Drew. He had previously served as an assistant coach for the Memphis Grizzlies and Toronto Raptors and was the head coach for the Raptors 905 G League team.
