New UNC Basketball Galleries Posted

Michael Jordan and Dean SmithI am finally caught up on captioning and have posted galleries from UNC’s win over Wake Forest and the upset loss to Virginia Tech. The Wake Forest game was special because players from the 1957 and 1982 teams were there to celebrate their 50th and 25th anniversary of their respective NCAA title. The 1957 team was “McGuire’s Miracle” where the team went 32-0, beating Wilt Chamerline’s team in the NCAA championship. The ’82 was headlined by head coach Dean Smith, Sam Perkins and Michael Jordan.

The VA Tech game wasn’t as special for Tar Heel fans as the Hokies upset the Heels in overtime. I have to say though that game was fun to photograph. There were so many photo opportunities that it was like shooting fish in a barrel.

Here is the gallery of Wake Forest v. North Carolina Basketball and here is the gallery of Virginia Tech v. North Carolina Basketball.
