All-star game gives Barth chance to show NFL scouts he’s healthy again

Posted Jan 11, 2013
Casey Barth’s final season at UNC didn’t end the way he wanted when an ankle injury forced him to miss the Tar Heels’ last two games. The Hoggard High graduate is back on his feet and kicking again, and thanks to his selection to the Raycom College Football All-Star Classic, he’ll get an opportunity to show NFL scouts that he’s fully healed and ready to join his brother Connor as an NFL placekicker.
