UNC's Flack an important piece of the puzzle

Posted Jun 13, 2007

One year to the day after Chad Flack blasted two home runs to propel the Tar Heels to their first College World Series in 17 years, Flack blasted a two-run homer that helped the Heels to their second CWS in as many years. "After going through a tough year like that, it's good to come through for your teammates when it counts the most," said Flack, whose Tar Heels open play in the CWS on Friday (7 p.m., ESPN2) against Mississippi State.
