Zack Pianalto produces

Posted Dec 25, 2009
Both times that North Carolina tight end Zack Pianalto has found the end zone in his college career, he’s required medical assistance to get out of the end zone. But when Pianalto is healthy enough to play, the Tar Heels seem to get into the end zone — and the win column — more often. UNC is 6-1 this season when Pianalto manages to stay healthy for the majority of the game, but the Tar Heels are just 2-3 when he doesn’t. (Durham Herald-Sun)
