At North Carolina you could say that is "king", but he didn't start out that way. The Salisbury, NC native began his college baseball career as a walk on at Liberty. When his head coach Scott Jackson left to become an assistant at Carolina before this season, Kepley followed suit, and the centerfielder's Lion King walk up music came with him. (WRAL Sports Fan)
