Carolina's cup continues to runneth over
Posted Apr 9, 2009
The latest McDonald's game was played on April 1, and Carolina had four of its five incoming recruits there. Guard Dexter Strickland, forward John Henson and forwards and twins Davis and Travis Wear, both 6 feet 10. Henson is listed at 6-10, but his wingspan reaches well into the 7-foot-plus range. He can play small forward as well as block shots and work his way to the basket. Next season, the Tar Heels will have a towering front line.
