UNC notes: Casey Barth will get some help
Posted Sep 1, 2011
Senior kick Casey Barth will play when North Carolina opens the season Saturday against James Madison. But because of a sore thigh, he might not be the only kicker the Tar Heels use. “We’re going to try to do some other things in the kicking game, maybe, to give him a little rest,’’ interim head coach Everett Withers said Thursday. “He’s got a little bit of thigh soreness, and we’ve got some other guys who can kick.”
