UNC pitcher Cameron Padgett’s tattoo tribute to former teammate
Posted May 1, 2024
Cameron Padgett is thankful for each day he can pitch for UNC, knowing it can be taken away at any moment. The right-hander has a tattoo on his pitching arm reading "Fighter" as a tribute to a friend and longtime teammate on showcase baseball teams who knows that all too well. ECU sophomore Parker Byrd got into a boating accident in 2022.
