Houston helps Heels move forward

Posted Nov 9, 2009
The most recent time North Carolina's Ryan Houston carried the ball 37 times in a game, he was 30 pounds lighter and in high school. But in Saturday's win over Duke, Houston was forced to carry the load for the Tar Heels when starter Shaun Draughn was lost on the first play of the game. Houston finished with a career-high 164 yards and carried the ball more times than any UNC player since 1990. (Fayetteville Observer)
