Position-less Hairston finds big groove with smaller Tar Heels
Posted Feb 19, 2013

As for the name of the starting position Hairston has been plugged into, well, that’s not exactly definable. “I don’t really know what I am,” the sophomore said. “I can pretty much play any position if I’m asked to.”
