GREENSBORO, N,C, — Tre'von Spillers dunked off the fast break and Hunter Sallis converted three of four free throws in the final nine seconds to allow Wake Forest to hold off Michigan 72-70 at First Horizon Coliseum. The game was the first meeting between the schools in 24 years to the day and was the first of a two-game, neutral-site series dubbed the Deacon-Wolverine Challenge. Next year the game will be played in Detroit. Wake Forest won the only other meeting in an ACC/Big Ten Challenge game Nov. 10, 2000.
