Tar Heels Celebrate a Century

Posted Feb 13, 2010
When Dewey Burke fed Serge Zwikker for the game-winning layup Friday night at the Smith Center, it seemed a fitting way to conclude North Carolina’s Celebration of a Century Alumni Game. A former walk-on and former starter. A decade in age apart. Teaming for the same goal: victory. “That was a great, great ending,’’ current coach Roy Williams said after the Blue team beat White, 71-70. “Guys, that’s what North Carolina basketball is all about.” (Raleigh News & Observer)
