At 87, former UNC basketball star Lennie Rosenbluth still remembers the magic of 1957
Posted Feb 23, 2020
Lennie Rosenbluth’s mind is still sharp. His laugh is still strong. And he has a theory he’d like to share. "Our 1957 team was the most important team in Carolina history," Rosenbluth said. "Bar none. It all began there." That 1957 UNC squad remains the only team from the ACC to ever win a national basketball championship while also going undefeated.
