Yet another player interview via Inside Carolina.

Heading into his junior year, Strickland doesn’t hesitate when asked about areas for personal improvement.

You know, the one Elaine Marshall was championing last year when the NCAA probe at UNC was heating up and not coincidentally her bid for US Senate. Well, it appears to be going nowhere at this point despite mounting evidence that NC state laws have been broken. Sports attorney and President of Synergy Sports Consulting, [...]

Look Out NCSU, Tar Heels Can Fish Too

An interesting tidbit for your slow summer news cycle.

Heels Take Opener vs Stanford

It wasn’t the sharpest of performances but it got the job done. Ben Bunting had three hits and Seth Baldwin’s two run home run in the seventh ended up being hugely important as Patrick Johnson and Michael Morin combined to hold Stanford to a pair of runs giving UNC a 5-2 win the the Super [...]
