Noel gets best of reunion with Perry
Posted Dec 5, 2005
It was Kentucky-North Carolina on a Saturday afternoon, but it might as well have been Hillside-Southern on a Friday night. Two players from Durham, one of whom was better known as a football star in high school, were in the starting lineup for the two winningest programs in the history of college basketball. They lined up across from each other in hallowed Rupp Arena, David Noel a senior forward for UNC and Bobby Perry a junior forward for Kentucky.
