ECU's Dixon finally gets to play in Kenan

Posted Oct 1, 2010
Justin Dixon did everything in his power for nearly two years to play football in Kenan Stadium. Dixon will finally have his chance Saturday, but the circumstances won’t be what he imagined. He’ll dress in the visitor’s locker room. The majority of the Kenan crowd will be cheering against him. And instead of UNC’s blue and white, he’ll be wearing the purple-and-gold uniform of ECU. But all that’s OK with Dixon. (Winston-Salem Journal)
