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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spillers hit two free throws with 10 minutes left to tie the game at 57-57 and the Deacons took the lead a minute later and maintained it the rest of the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Michigan struggled from the floor. Vladislav Goldin hit back-to-back layups to get the Wolverines within 63-61, but after Sallis knocked down a jumper, Danny Wolf\u2019s layup with 3:48 left was the Wolverines\u2019 last field goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Neither team scored over the next three minutes and traded turnovers before Spillers came up with a steal, drove into the lane on the break and threw down the game\u2019s final field goal with 38 seconds left. Michigan made seven straight free throws until Rubin Jones intentionally missed with 1.7 seconds left, but the Wolverines could not come down with the rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sallis finished with 18 points to lead Wake Forest (3-0), knocking down 6 of 13 from the field and 6 of 7 from the line. Spillers added 16 points and Juke Harris contributed 11 points and five rebounds off the bench. Efton Reid III pulled down 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roddy Gayle Jr. paced Michigan (1-1) with 11 points, hitting 4 of 4 from the line, and Tre Donaldson added 10 points and grabbed nine rebounds. LJ Cason chipped in 10 points and four assists off the bench.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GREENSBORO, N,C, (AP) \u2014 Tre\u2019von 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 on Sunday afternoon.
