Quentin Thomas has ably filled in for injured Lawson
Posted Mar 4, 2008
North Carolina will play its final home game of the season tonight and stepping to center stage on Senior Night will be one of its most valuable players of the past five weeks. The 8 p.m. game against Florida State will be the last in the Smith Center for Quentin Thomas, a point guard. Outside of Tyler Hansbrough, a junior center, no UNC player has been more crucial to the team’s success since Feb. 3 than Thomas.
