Punt Return Prowess
Posted Sep 1, 2012
The Tar Heels not only set a new ACC record for punt return yardage on Saturday, they shattered a mark that has stood for 25 years. North Carolina totaled 260 yards on nine punt returns in routing Elon, topping the previous league record (227 by Clemson in 1987) on Roy Smith’s 20-yard return with 11:51 to play.
