Lineman Nick Polino comes full circle with Tar Heels

Posted Nov 23, 2019
The last home game has arrived for UNC offensive lineman Nick Polino. His final season has been interrupted by an injury, so he has learned to appreciate the chance to be back. A couple more victories would be satisfying as well. The Tar Heels take on Mercer in Saturday’s game, which will mark the last time playing at Kenan Stadium for 20 seniors. (Burlington Times-News)
