Connor Barth boots his way into history

Posted Oct 7, 2007

Connor Barth, who kicked the winning field goal in Carolina's stunning win over Miami back in 2004, haunted the Hurricanes again Saturday at Kenan Stadium. The senior from Wilmington kicked four fields goals, the first of the day his 16th straight, during UNC's 33-27 win over Miami. That surpassed the previous record of 15 in a row, set by Kenny Miller in 1984. (Raleigh News & Observer)
