Albert Long: One Of A Kind

Thu Oct 29, 2020
Albert Long from UNC, is the ACC's only four-sport letter winner. He grew up in Durham and graduated from the old Durham High School in 1951. He went directly to UNC to get into summer school and enroll in the ROTC program because of the Korean War. Participation in four sports -- forget about lettering in four -- wasn't part of the plan at the time. (Inside Carolina)
