ACC fines North Carolina $50K for court-storming vs. Duke

The Atlantic Coast Conference fined North Carolina $50,000 on Sunday after fans stormed the court in the No. 14 Tar Heels' 71-68 upset of No. 4 Duke one night earlier in Chapel Hill, N.C.

Duke coach Jon Scheyer had said at his postgame news conference that members of his staff were punched by people storming the court after North Carolina's Seth Trimble hit a game-winning 3-pointer with 0.4 seconds left.

The ACC said in a statement that the University of North Carolina was fined for violating the league's event security policy.
