CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- Kenny Williams III spent last season trying to keep his confidence up while buried on the bench for a deep, veteran North Carolina team.The first two games of his sophomore season are undoing some of that frustration.Williams had 11 points for the sixth-ranked Tar Heels in a 97-57 victory over Chattanooga on Sunday in the home opener.I think if you play with effort, then things will start going your way, Williams said. Shots will start going in. You start to get more steals and you start to get more fast-break layups. ... I think effort brings a lot of positivity to the game.Williams also finished with six rebounds, five assists and three steals in 20 minutes. And that came after he had five rebounds and four assists in the opener against Tulane on Friday for the Tar Heels (2-0), inheriting a larger role with junior swingman Theo Pinson out with a broken right foot.His play Sunday included a couple of dive-on-the-floor, active-hands moments that his Hall of Fame coach loves.Thats a Danny Green kind of stat sheet right there, Roy Williams said, where youre involved in a lot of good things.Joel Berry II scored 18 points to lead the Tar Heels, who shot 56 percent through the first 24 minutes in building a lopsided lead. They pushed ahead for good with a 21-5 run late in the first half for a 44-33 lead at the break, then scored nine straight out of the break to blow it open.Greg Pryor scored 17 points for the Mocs (1-1), who won Friday at Tennessee. But after a quick start, the preseason Southern Conference favorite just couldnt keep up with the Tar Heels.Chattanooga made 5 of 9 3-pointers in the first 10 minutes, but went 2-for-18 from behind the arc from there and shot 35 percent for the game.We got off to a great start which I thought was big, Chattanooga coach Matt McCall said. Unfortunately, they got settled in and really started turning up the heat, which made it difficult for us.BIG PICTUREChattanooga: It was a little too much to ask for Chattanooga to win both the Tennessee and UNC games to start the season, but earning the split against power-conference teams is a good start for a team that won 29 games last season and played in the NCAA Tournament.I think for us it is important for us to not let this take away from our win over Tennessee, McCall said.UNC: The Tar Heels had a lot of a balance in this one, and thats a promising sign for a team that must replace four-year starter Marcus Paige and Associated Press All-American Brice Johnson from a national runner-up.It was a team, it really was, Roy Williams said of last years NCAA finalist. Weve emphasized from Day One that this groups got to be a team now as well.POLL IMPLICATIONSUNCs first two games did nothing to undermine its No. 6 ranking in the AP Top 25 to start the season. Its a group with veteran scorers back in Berry and Justin Jackson as well as experience up front with Kennedy Meeks (14 points, 12 rebounds) and Isaiah Hicks (13 points), though its still sorting out playing rotations with Pinson out.FIRST LOOKIt was the first regular-season home game for UNCs latest freshman class.Big man Tony Bradley stood out with 12 points and eight rebounds in 15 minutes.It didnt go completely smoothly, though.Wing Brandon Robinson had five points and three rebounds, though he blew a breakaway layup. And fellow guard Seventh Woods scored six points in 12 minutes but bricked a second-half dunk.UP NEXTChattanooga: The Mocs will try to improve to 7-0 against Hiwassee in their home opener Wednesday.UNC: The Tar Heels host Long Beach State on Tuesday night before heading west for a game at Hawaii followed by the Maui Invitational during Thanksgiving week.---Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap---More AP college basketball at http://collegebasketball.ap.org or http://www.twitter.com/AP-Top25 Mark Borowiecki Jersey . -- Yogi Ferrell orchestrates pretty much everything in Indianas offence.

Pollock was hurt, then sidelined with foot injury, now back at shortstop as the season winds down.On Friday night, he added a little power hitting for good measure.Owings hit the go-ahead two-run home run in the Diamondbacks 5-3 victory over the San Diego Padres.Thats the kind of power we see Chris display daily during BP, Arizona manager Chip Hale said. Hes got big power right-center field. That was the talk when I got here before his shoulder surgery, he really drove the ball to right-center a lot in the minor leagues. So hes starting to get comfortable and just stayed on that pitch and rode it out of here. Thats very, very impressive for a shortstop of his stature to be able to go the opposite way.Paul Goldschmidt also hit a two-run homer for Arizona. Ryan Schimpf hit a two-run home run for San Diego.Randall Delgado (5-2) pitched an inning of relief to get the victory. Patrick Corbin threw 2 2/3 innings of scoreless relief before Daniel Hudson came on to get Wil Myers to pop out to first for his fifth save. Corbins performance was the latest in a series of strong efforts after he was demoted to the bullpen.He just feels like his stuff is back to where it was before (Tommy John) surgery, Hale said. He got tremendous life up to 96 today. His breaking ball, you saw Myers take the swing where he spun around. Its really good to finish this way. Hell fit right into our rotation the top two or three spots there next year.Edwin Jackson (5-7) gave up five runs and seven hits in five innings to take the loss.The crowd for the matchup between the bottom two teams in the NL West was announced at 42,651, the second-largest of the season at home for the Diamondbacks. Only the season opener drew more.By handing the Padres their 50th road loss, Arizona still has a chance to escape the division cellar. The Diamondbacks are a game behind San Diego with two to play.Goldschmidt put Arizona uup 3-0 in the third inning when he hit Jacksons 2-0 pitch over the porch in right-center for his 24th home run, and 94th and 95th RBI.ddddddddddddBut Diamondbacks starter Braden Shipley couldnt hold the lead.

Owings fifth home run of the season gave the Diamondbacks a 5-3 lead.I saw him pretty good tonight, Owings said. I got some good counts before that. Got to 2-0 on that one, just got a pitch out over the plate and was able to drive it.SCHIMPFS SHOTSSchimpfs 20 home runs are third-most by a Padres rookie behind Nate Colberts 24 in 1969 and Jedd Gyorkos 23 in 2013. They are second-most by a Padres second baseman behind Gyorkos 23. Schimpf had 15 homers this season in the minors. And they came in about a half-season.Has Schimpf surprised himself?I dont know, he said. I dont know if it has really settled in yet. Im just trying to constantly get better.GOLDYS BLASTGoldschmidts two-run homer gave him 14 RBI against San Diego this season, his career-high against the Padres.
