Posted Mar 5, 2009
Over 100,000 college basketball fans participated in an EA SPORTS online poll to determine the "Toughest Places to Play" in college basketball and the Smith Center is among the finalists. Fans have determined 15 finalists, whose home courts were judged to be the most difficult for opposing teams to play in, that will form an integral part of a new game mode in the EA SPORTS NCAA Basketball video game franchise next year. Vote for the Smith Center here. (Tar Heel Blue)
