Duke coach says staff ‘got punched in the face’ during UNC court-storming

• Jon Scheyer bemoaned the behavior of some UNC fans

• North Carolina AD Cunningham apologizes

Duke coach Jon Scheyer said he had staff members that got punched in the face" as North Carolina fans stormed the court to celebrate a late winning shot in the famed rivalry Saturday night, prompting UNC athletic director Bubba Cunningham to publicly apologize.

The 14th-ranked Tar Heels stunned the fourth-ranked Blue Devils 71-68 on Seth Trimble's 3-pointer with 0.4 seconds left, a shot that originally appeared to come as time expired and had jubilant fans rush the court in a chaotic celebration. Officials reviewed the play and determined time was left, so fans had to be cleared for Duke to get one final play before storming the court again when the clock officially hit zero.
