Noel confident freshmen will deliver

Posted Mar 15, 2006

David Noel figures a loss to Boston College in an ACC semifinal cost the 10th-ranked Tar Heels a return trip to Greensboro. "We're in Ohio. That's where we have to play," Noel said. "So that's where we're going to play." Playing farther from home isn't such a bad thing for these guys, anyway. The Heels were 8-2 on the road this season, with victories at Kentucky, N.C. State and Duke. (Greensboro News & Record)
