One win separates UNC's Justin Jackson from a big-time homecoming

Posted Mar 27, 2016
Justin Jackson is one win away from a mid-semester trip home. If UNC plays in Sunday's East Region final like it did in Friday's semifinal, a trip to next weekend's Final Four at Houston's NRG Stadium will be a foregone conclusion. For Jackson, a starting forward for UNC and a Tomball native, such a trip would mean a homecoming on college basketball's biggest stage. (Houston Chronicle)
