1957 Season The Tar Heels had to pull out numerous close games to preserve their perfect 32-0 record and NCAA title. Win No. 17 was a 65-61 tri- umph over Maryland in double overtime. Tommy Kearns’ free throws provided the win- ning margin in the 18th consecutive win, 75-73, over Duke. The Tar Heels beat Wake Forest for the fourth time in that one year in the ACC Tour- nament semifinals. Carolina trailed with less than a minute left, but squeaked out a 61-59 win. Those close games were nothing compared to the drama that unfolded in the Final Four in Kansas City.
