Zac Gallen aims to make his mark

Posted Feb 19, 2016
Zac Gallen was one of two players — along with junior Adam Pate — that coach Mike Fox named a team captain for this season. Fox has never had captains in 17 seasons as UNC’s coach, but he knew the team needed a change. Zac was a clear choice. “He doesn’t like teammates who don’t carry their weight, and he’ll let them know it,” Fox said. (Daily Tar Heel)
