Heels eye a return to Omaha
Posted Feb 16, 2007
As Robert Woodard pondered his baseball future last summer, he concluded nothing could be finer than to return to North Carolina and help the Tar Heels make another run at the national title. "I came to Carolina to compete for a national championship; I wouldn't have come back if I didn't think [winning] it was a possibility," said Woodard, a senior pitcher drafted in the 46th round by St. Louis last June.
