UNC helped Matt Harvey prepare for major league career
Posted Jun 25, 2012
As a third round draft pick out of high school Matt Harvey could have more minor league experience under his belt, but he delayed a pro career and went to North Carolina. Harvey thinks the decision helped him on his quest for the big leagues. "I did a lot, whether it was pitching in Omaha in front of 30,000 people or a weekend series against Clemson, you're in the spotlight," said Harvey.
