Zack Pianalto Making Strides

Posted Aug 18, 2009
Much like his defensive teammate Charles Brown, UNC tight end Zack Pianalto is looking to return to form in 2009 after a disappointing, injury-riddled sophomore season. Pianalto, like Brown, came in and played right away as a true freshman in 2007. That experience, combined with the time he was on the field last season, are paying dividends now that he's healthy again. "I'm 100 percent ready to go. [I feel] great," Pianalto said. (Rivals.com)
