Costner and Fells Thrive Against the Heels

In our last post we introduced you to the Carolina Killers of old. Allow us to introduce you to a present day duo that has made it a habit of having big games against the Heels: Brandon Costner and Courtney Fells. They do not fear UNC. Period. It is as if they wait all year to get to play their arch rivals.

As a freshman Brandon Costner averaged 20.3ppg against the Tar Heels by manging them with outputs of 15, 18, and 28 points. The 15 point effort helped lead the Pack to a huge victory in the RBC center and the 28 points came in the championship game of the ACC Tournament. Last year, Costner only averaged 5ppg against the Heels because he played less due to the presence of J.J. Hickson. Costner is back to his Freshmen form and seems ready to feast on the Heels tomorrow.



Courtney Fells has been the most steady player on the Pack roster against the blue infants in sweater vests. He has averaged 14.8ppg against them which is well over his career average. In 4 out of the 5 games that he has played against them he has scored 15+ points. With his thirst for Blue blood and his hand flaming after the Miami game, we are anticipating Courtney Fells to be in rare form. This is Courtney's last shot to give the Home crowd what they live for: a Blue bus full of Sweater Vests crying on Roy's shoulder, heading back to Chapel Hill after being annihilated in a Wolfpack workdown.
