Armando Bacot's Season

Posted Apr 1, 2023
Two moments from Armando Bacot’s senior season stood out more than any others: One was the evening he became UNC’s all-time rebounder in a win over NC State on Jan. 21. The other was after the Tar Heels’ final game, a loss to Virginia in the ACC Tournament quarterfinals March 9. A period of 47 days between the two events, emotional nights for Bacot.
