Return of Colin Moran provides lift for UNC

Posted May 6, 2012
A bad thing happened to Colin Moran on March 24, after UNC’s 3-1 loss against N.C. State. In a moment of anger, he punched a door and broke two bones in his right hand. He went on to miss the Heels’ next 21 games. They went 13-8 without him and now Moran, a sophomore who entered the season as an all-American candidate, is finally working his way back from the injury. (Raleigh News & Observer)
