2 days, 2,100 miles: UNC quartet undertakes ultimate road trip to Final Four
Posted Apr 3, 2017
The flight from Raleigh-Durham Airport to Phoenix traverses three time zones and eats up a day. But that's nothing compared to the road trip four UNC seniors made to get to the Final Four. "It's been one of the best weekends of my life," said Nick Cebollero. The group left Chapel Hill at 11 p.m. Wednesday. The almost 48-hour trip was a first for Zach Smith.
