Kennedy Tinsley savors last game at Kenan

Posted Nov 18, 2009
Kennedy Tinsley sat in the posh new room high above Kenan Stadium with the stars of the game, his No. 36 jersey and uniform pants both covered in grass stains. The senior from Greensboro took one last look around during the interview, drinking it all in like cold, cold Gatorade. He couldn’t stop smiling. “To come in here and beat Miami in my last home game, that’s one of those things I’ll never forget,” Tinsley said. (Greensboro News & Record)
