How Chris Gray helped catapult UNC men's lacrosse to No. 1 ranking

Posted Mar 23, 2021
"It sounds simple, but when it's a firm handshake and eye contact and saying, 'Thank you, I appreciate you having us down for the visit,' that, to me, is gold,” UNC men's lacrosse coach Joe Breschi said. “That's gold for a first-team All-American to say that." Since that meeting, Chris Gray has blossomed into the team's leader in goals and assists. (Daily Tar Heel)
