Coastal Crown Within Reach for UNC

Posted Nov 14, 2015
Marquise Williams, the oldest player on UNC’s roster, had just turned five years old the last time the Tar Heels won nine games in a season. It was 1997, a year in sports that witnessed Tiger Woods become the youngest player to win the Masters at the age of 21 and Mike Tyson bite a chunk out of Evander Holyfield’s ear. It was also the year of UNC’s last great football season. (Inside Carolina)
