Connor Barth’s kicking struggles continue

Posted Oct 4, 2005

UNC kicker Connor Barth was 14-for-18 -with a long of 50 yards – last year as a freshman. His 42-yarder as time expired lifted UNC past Miami in one of Carolina’s biggest wins ever. This season, however, has been a mystery to Barth and coach John Bunting. They got together last Monday to watch film of and discuss Barth’s two misses against N.C. State. Bunting believed the problem had been worked out. (Wilmington Star News)
