Running Back George Pettaway Showing Explosive Ability Early at UNC
Posted Sep 7, 2022
In two games, UNC freshman running back George Pettaway has two rushing touchdowns of 29 and 21 yards. The Suffolk, Va. native already has proven that he can take it to the house whenever he touches the football. "George in the open field, that's why we've got to get him out there in more scenarios," Tar Heels quarterback Drake Maye said.
