Searcy’s INT turns momentum in Heels’ 42-17 win

Posted Oct 2, 2010
For Da’Norris Searcy, it was a big return both literally and figuratively. In his first game of the season, after being cleared to play two days earlier, Searcy ran back an interception 46 yards to help the Tar Heels beat in-state foe East Carolina 42-17. “I feel like a kid again,” said Searcy, who was held out of the first three games of the season as part of the NCAA investigations.
