Born & Bred: A Grandfather's Foresight

Posted Jul 21, 2023
Former UNC gymnast Elizabeth Culton wanted to be a Tar Heel. Both her brothers attended Carolina. Her parents, Julian and Cathy, attended Carolina. It was a deep legacy but not an unusual one; once a family develops some Carolina blue traits, it tends to take over the family. But Culton’s family tree was different, and had a deeper Tar Heel tie.
