Robert Woodard doesn't regret second chance

Posted Jun 26, 2007

As he sprinted to the mound in the eighth inning at Rosenblatt Stadium on Sunday, pitcher Robert Woodard said he had a feeling it would be his last outing as a Tar Heel. But the morning after North Carolina lost to Oregon State for the second straight season in the College World Series Finals, the senior said he'll never regret delaying his professional baseball career for a second chance at the national title.
