LAHAINA, Maui — North Carolina didn't need Tyler Hansbrough. Chaminade needed a lot of help.

Senior Danny Green scored a career-high 26 points and the top-ranked Tar Heels, again playing without Hansbrough, beat Chaminade 115-70 last night in the opening round of the EA Sports Maui Invitational.

Hansbrough missed three weeks of practice and the first two games of the season with a stress reaction in his right shin, and the reigning player of the year wasn't expected to play all three games in the three-day tournament. He played 25 minutes and had 13 points Friday against UC Santa Barbara, but didn't see any time against the Division II host school.

"If this had been for the national championship he would have played," North Carolina coach Roy Williams said. "I made my mind up before we left Santa Barbara that, he wouldn't play three straight days and he tweaked his left ankle at the end of that game. If he doesn't play two games now it will be because of the other leg."

The Tar Heels (4-0) will play the winner of the Oregon-Alabama game in the semifinals today. A school spokesman said Hansbrough is considered questionable for North Carolina's next game.

Not having Hansbrough, Marcus Ginyard, who is expected back next month after foot surgery, and freshman Tyler Zeller, who is out for the season after breaking his wrist against Kentucky last week, didn't make a difference against the Silverswords (0-1), who dressed just seven players and suffered their second-worst loss in the 25 years of the tournament.

"They're pretty good, obviously, and we were outplayed all the way around," coach Matt Mahar said. "I'm glad they got to rest Tyler and we didn't see him. Our seven guys played with effort at least."

The Tar Heels closed the first half with a 7-1 run to take a 48-25 lead. They opened the second half with a 7-0 spurt — all the points coming off Chaminade turnovers — for their first 30-point lead.

The Silverswords just couldn't stay with the Tar Heels and the lead reached 85-44 with 9:15 to go on a dunk by Ed Davis.

Ty Lawson had 19 points on 7-of-9 shooting and six assists for North Carolina. Wayne Ellington added 14 points and Deon Thompson had 13.

Shane Hanson had 15 points to lead five Silverswords in double figures.

Notre Dame will face No. 6 Texas, which beat Saint Joseph's 68-50, in the semifinals today.

Jackson was 10 of 17 from the field and had six assists. McAlarney scored all his points on 3-pointers, finishing 6 of 11 from behind the arc.

Tom Pritchard had 14 points for the Hoosiers, who just didn't have the size, speed or depth to stay with their instate rival.

NO. 6 TEXAS 68, SAINT JOSEPH'S 50

LAHAINA, Maui — A.J. Abrams had 17 points and the Longhorns (3-0) turned in a strong defensive effort to beat the Hawks (1-2).
