Romar Morris has banner day, but no UNC proclamation

Posted Sep 19, 2012
After he won consecutive state championships in the 100- and 200-meter dashes at Salisbury High, Romar Morris received a day in his honor in Rowan County. It’s June 1. There was no parade or large celebration. But there was cake, at least. “They basically took me to the mayor’s office and gave me a cake and all that stuff,” said Morris, a redshirt freshman running back at UNC. (Raleigh News & Observer)
