Omaha teen's turn on the field with Tar Heels 'so cool'
Posted Jun 15, 2013
David Brown of Omaha got a thrill Friday during practice before the College World Series: He shagged fly balls for his favorite team, the University of North Carolina Tar Heels. He had shown up at TD Ameritrade Park simply to watch, but coach Mike Fox surprised him by inviting him to take the field. Said 16-year-old David: “It took my breath away.”
