King Rice takes Hawks to Chapel Hill

Posted Dec 31, 2011
When Monmouth University steps inside the building for a 3 pm contest against the Tar Heels, the Hawks will of course get booed. However, when they first step on the floor, one can imagine that the coaching staff may get quite the ovation. Head coach King Rice, along with assistant coaches Brian Reese and Derrick Phelps, are native sons of Chapel Hill. For those three, today is a homecoming. (Asbury Park Press)
