Posted Jan 31, 2012
There atop the list of ACC rebound leaders were two Tar Heel, big men John Henson and Tyler Zeller. Seeing Henson and Zeller pace the conference on the boards, even for a day, seemed rather unusual. In fact, we couldn’t recall the last time we’d seen two players from the same team ranked similarly in rebounding. So we checked. It’s happened just once in ACC history, back in 1959.
