Remembering a perfect team of Tar Heels

Posted Nov 29, 2016
UNC's Dec. 4 meeting with Radford coincides with the date 60 years ago that the 1956-57 UNC basketball season began with a decisive Tar Heels victory over Furman. When the season ended on March 23, Frank McGuire’s UNC squad would be the 32-0 national champion. The ’57 squad produced the only unblemished record by one of the ACC’s 13 men’s national champions.
