UNC trainer off to 'rough start'


When Chris Hirth took over the head athletic trainer's job for UNC's men's basketball team last summer, he never imagined he'd be quite this busy, quite this soon. "No, it's not what I envisioned. But it does happen, and it's why I'm here -- to handle and help these situations." "These situations" include 's still-healing broken foot, 's still-mending knee, 's fractured left wrist, and the stress reaction in 's right shin. (Raleigh News & Observer)
