Chansky’s Notebook: Phil Ford, Joel Berry Equally Tough

Posted Jul 11, 2018
Joel Berry wasn’t quite the scorer or assist man to equal Phil Ford, but he was just as ferocious a competitor, perhaps more so. Ford started his first game as a freshman; Berry had to learn the college game after being named Mr. Basketball in Florida twice. But he did, and finished with more than 1800 points, 400 assists and 400 rebounds at Carolina. (Chapelboro.com)
