Heels hurting from damage to defensive line

Posted Nov 14, 2005

One of the keys to North Carolina's defensive improvement this season has been its depth on the defensive line. But Saturday, in a 33-30 overtime loss to Maryland, the Tar Heels found themselves thin at the ends. Fifth-year senior Chase Page spent 15 plays at defensive end, the first time he's played anywhere but tackle since the end of the 2003 season. For the game, Page had two sacks and three tackles for a loss. (Greensboro News & Record)
