From Fetzer To Finley: Norm Sper & The Victory Bell

Posted Nov 22, 2011
Norm Sper was best known as the head cheerleader during the Charlie Justice era and the first UNC swimmer or diver to ever be named an All-America by the NCAA during all four years of his eligibility. As the Tar Heels prepare to face Duke this Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in Kenan Stadium it's time once again to reflect on one of Sper's most enduring legacy as a UNC cheerleader and student athlete -- the Victory Bell.
