Relentless Tar Heels secure No. 800 for Williams
Posted Jan 17, 2017
Roy Williams was forced to relive some of his past because of a postgame tribute to recognize is latest milestone. The North Carolina coach was quick to look to the future as well. “When you get to 800 (career wins), not a lot of guys have done that,” he said after the Tar Heels pulled away for an 85-68 victory against Syracuse on Monday. “But I hope I get a few more.”
