No bones about Bates' success

Whenever North Carolina reliever Colin Bates goes through a tough stretch on the pitching mound, he reaches into his back right pocket to touch his rib. Yes, his rib. "It reminds me, 'Don't forget what you've done to get here,' " the redshirt freshman said, showing the curved, 3-inch bone that used to reside under his right clavicle. "Plus, it's part of my body, I don't want to leave it behind." (Raleigh News & Observer)

  • Excellent and comprehensive addition to the Heels' NetWorld Offerings. Really appreciated by one such as me who lives beyond the "info line" here in the Charleston area, we get drips and dribbles but you give us the big, complete overview. Greatly appreciated. A must-be Bookmarked! Thank you.
