Hobbled Bacot comes up short in Tar Heels’ NCAA title push

Posted Apr 5, 2022
Armando Bacot kept battling his way through a hobbling ankle injury for the chance to help UNC win a national championship. At one point, he could only hop on one leg in a desperate attempt to get back downcourt on defense. And by the end of Monday's 72-69 loss to Kansas in the NCAA title game, he couldn’t navigate even a few stairs without help. (Associated Press)
