Just Make the Kick: Redemption for Noah Ruggles

Posted Oct 31, 2019
It was a strange turn of events for Noah Ruggles. One week after getting benched, he got his job back mid-game and nailed two kicks in UNC's win over Duke. "Obviously I didn't want that to happen, but I expected it after what happened at Virginia Tech," he said about being benched. "It didn't phase me that much. I just had to keep working and get back."
