Jackson leads No. 9 UNC past Monmouth, 102-74
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- Justin Jackson scored 28 points and No. 9 North Carolina beat Monmouth 102-74 on Wednesday night.
Kennedy Meeks added 17 points and 12 rebounds and Isaiah Hicks finished with 15 points to help the Tar Heels (12-2) win their second straight.
Micah Seaborn scored 19 points and Je'Lon Hornbeak added 17 before fouling out for Monmouth (10-3), which had its program-record nine-game winning streak snapped.
Jackson was 9 of 15 from the field in the second-highest-scoring game of his career -- surpassed only by his 34-point performance against Kentucky . His six 3-pointers were one shy of the career high he set earlier this month against Davidson.
