Ford Corners: A Silver Lining
Posted Mar 14, 2013
We won two ACC championships in the Greensboro Coliseum when I played, and the first one was really special because we had to beat N.C. State (the defending national champion) to make the NCAA Tournament. We were a fairly young team, with Brad Hoffman as our only senior starter. I was a freshman, Walter Davis, John Kuester and Tommy LaGarde were sophomores and Mitch Kupchak a junior.
