A Tar Heel at the Super Bowl
Posted Feb 3, 2019
UNC alum Alex Floch is no stranger to being on the sidelines of big games. On Sunday, he'll be on the field for Super Bowl LIII as the mascot manager for the LA Rams. For UNC’s 2017 national basketball championship, Floch stood on the end line as UNC took home its seventh national championship. “I don’t think many people get this opportunity,” said Floch.
