Randolph Childress penetrated from the lane, drove right and hit a 10-footer with 4.6 seconds left. North Carolina had one more chance as Pierce Landry inbounded to Jerry Stackhouse, who launched a three-pointer that bounced off the rim and Landry failed to tip in. Childress, who scored a game-high 37 points, broke the ACC Tournament scoring record of Lennie Rosenbluth (1957) and was named Tournament MVP. It was Wake Forest's first conference title since 1962.
