Dual-sport UNC commit Gary Merrill left ‘speechless’ over playing for Bill Belichick

High School midfielder, had everything all planned out as a junior when he committed in 2023 to play lacrosse at UNC. Last week, Merrill dually committed to North Carolina for football under Bill Belichick, arguably the greatest coach in the game’s history. "I was speechless."
