Decision to focus on one sport pays off for Kendric Burney
Posted May 8, 2009
UNC's football practice field is right across the street from the Tar Heels' new baseball stadium. It's a particularly convenient set-up for cornerback Kendric Burney, who just can't seem to stay away from the first sport to steal his heart. "To tell you the truth," he said, "baseball is the reason I chose UNC." Football, though, is the sport Burney has chosen to focus on this year, and it's paid off for both him and the UNC defense.
