Lucas: Strickland Moves Forward

Posted Sep 5, 2012

Strickland played pickup with his teammates last Monday, the first time he had been back on a court with them since tearing his right ACL in a game at Virginia Tech on January 19. It was a relief to run the floor again, to get back to what had been normal for most of his life. (GoHeels.com)
