Tar Heels first baseman puts Royals on pause for CWS

Posted Jun 14, 2013
While playing professional baseball is a goal for many college players, Cody Stubbs is happy to put that on hold again. The North Carolina first baseman, who could be in a Burlington Royals uniform this summer, said he’s in no rush to start earning a paycheck for playing. That’s because he has more pressing business to take care of with the Tar Heels heading to the College World Series. (Burlington Times News)
