UNC QB Conner Harrell passes first test, freshman RB Davion Gause impressive in win

Posted Sep 7, 2024
Against an overmatched Charlotte program, game one with Conner Harrell directing North Carolina’s offense went smoothly, helped by a young “Bullet” in the backfield. Despite going without running back Omarion Hampton for most of the game, Harrell led the Tar Heels to a 38–20 victory in their home opener on a steamy Saturday at Kenan Stadium. (Tar Heel Tribune)
