Lassiter Bounces Back, Tar Heels Top Cal

Posted Mar 2, 2013
Saturday against California, Mike Fox could have chosen to go in a different direction. He’s got a lot of capable middle infielders, but he chose to stick with Landon Lassiter. “I said, ‘Hey, I’m putting you right back out there,’” Fox said. “Sometimes you hear a guy say how do you know if the coach has confidence in me, well, your name’s in the lineup. It’s as simple as that.” The move paid off. (Tar Heel Monthly)
