Remembering true champ Pete Brennan
Posted Jun 24, 2012
Pete Brennan, member of the 1957 national championship Tar Heels, the 1958 ACC player of the year and a member of the N.C. Sports Hall of Fame, recently died of cancer. A 6-foot-11 center, Brennan averaged 23.7 points and 11.7 rebounds his senior year. He is 12th on the school's career rebounding list, and he accomplished that feat in three years because freshmen were ineligible when he played.
