North Carolina’s superior sports information office brought fresh attention recently to the sterling rebounding supplied by senior big man Armando Bacot, not only this year but throughout his career.
Bacot dropped to second in the league in rebounding (11.1) after UNC’s loss at Indiana after leading in 2021-22 (13.1). To highlight his productivity on the boards UNC provided a list of the top 10 in total rebounds in school history.
The company is impressive at a school where rebounding prowess is a priority. The Heels led the league in rebound margin 27 times over the years, including 22 times since 1991 and the last 7 seasons in a row.
