Tar Heels Enjoying West Coast

Posted Nov 22, 2008
The Tar Heel men's basketball team arrived in Santa Barbara late on Wednesday night. While the trip has been mostly about business, including practice, study halls and scouting reports, the team has had some time to enjoy the West Coast a bit as well. After Friday night's game, the Carolina traveling party will bus to Los Angeles and fly to Maui early on Saturday morning for next week's Maui Invitational. (Tar Heel Blue)
