Cram sesson for Durell Mapp

Posted Sep 22, 2005

For Durell Mapp, this week has been one long, midseason audible. The former Cummings High School standout has shifted linebacker positions after North Carolina senior Doug Justice went down with a season-ending foot injury. Coach John Bunting said Mapp will serve as Victor Worsley’s backup at "Mike" linebacker — or middle linebacker — Saturday at North Carolina State. (Burlington Times News)
