No. 4 North Carolina beats Ohio State to bounce back from upset. NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Joel Berry II and Theo Pinson each scored 19 points, and No. 4 North Carolina bounced back from a loss to Wofford with a convincing 86-72 victory over Ohio State on Saturday. Pinson scored six points on flawless free throw shooting inside the final 1:06 of the game as the Tar Heels (11-2) kept the Buckeyes (10-4) at bay in the CBS Sports Classic. Cameron Johnson — a graduate transfer from Pittsburgh whose recent debut was delayed by injuries — scored 13 points in just his second game for North Carolina, which had 13 3-pointers. Keita Bates-Diop had 26 points — one point shy of his career high — for Ohio State. He shot 10 of 17 for the game and scored 19 points in the second half, including eight straight for Ohio State during a late 13-4 run that briefly pulled the Buckeyes within 78-69 with 1:10 to play.
