'Took a lot of guts': Charlie Scott persevered in breaking color barrier at UNC
Posted Feb 28, 2023
Charlie Scott, the first Black scholarship player at North Carolina, scored 40 points in the 1969 title game while leading the Tar Heels to an 85-74 victory over Duke. Video highlights are compelling, but there’s no visual record of what happened next. Scott said he went directly from the arena to his hotel room instead of joining his teammates to celebrate.
