Joel Berry Commits to North Carolina
Posted Jan 21, 2013
Joel Berry didn’t go to North Carolina this weekend thinking it would be only official college visit. But that all changed once the Lake Highland Prep junior basketball standout soaked in Tar Heels basketball from a courtside seat at the Dean Smith Center. Berry, a 6-foot point guard ranked as ESPN’s No. 12 junior prospect, orally committed to sign with North Carolina on Monday. He called Roy Williams before practice to tell him he had talked his decision over with his parents and high school coaches and had seen all he needs to see in the recruiting process.
