UNC lacrosse renaissance highlighted by return of old school Heels like Ryan Wade

Posted Feb 17, 2009
The squad of North Carolina lacrosse alums who faced the current team in a scrimmage in September featured the requisite number of guys who had not played the game in a while. One estimated he hadn't played in 10 years. Yet the player dominated the game from the opening quarter; the current players said they were asking each other, “Who is that guy?” The old helmet should have given them a clue: Ryan Wade.
