'Gritty' Tar Heels playing together to reach higher goals

Posted Nov 22, 2015
Quinshad Davis’ five-yard touchdown catch sealed North Carolina’s 30-27 overtime win against Virginia Tech Saturday and clinched the ACC Coastal Division for Tar Heels (10-1, 7-0 ACC). The win meant No. 11 UNC accomplished its number one goal for the season – winning the Coastal. But the win also revealed parts of the Tar Heels team that pack much more meaning than just that.
