Youth movement scoring big for UNC

Posted Nov 23, 2013
Here's the most impressive stat on a day when many, many impressive numbers were being thrown around Kenan: All eleven of the Tar Heels' touchdowns were scored by freshmen or sophomores. "It says the future's bright," said freshman Ryan Switzer, who scored three of those eleven TD's. "It just says a lot about where this team's headed. We're all excited to be a part of it."
