Tar Heels glad Marcus Ginyard is playing

Posted Dec 31, 2008
The longest three months of Marcus Ginyard's basketball career came to a patience-stretching end Sunday night. Ginyard played for the first time this season after undergoing surgery Oct. 8 to repair a stress fracture in his left foot. Seldom had he found running the floor at the Smith Center and breaking a sweat so gratifying. He saw only 11 minutes of action in UNC's 97-75 win over Rutgers, but he was elated to be on the floor.
