Jon Meterparel and Malcolm Huckaby, both based in the Boston area, had the play-by-play and color commentary, respectively, for an ACC Network telecast of North Carolina’s visit to face BC at Conte Forum on New Year’s Day.
Meterparel, whose early radio career took him through Charlotte, NC, is the well-established play-by-play man for BC football. Huckaby, even though you’ve likely not heard of him, was named a 2015 ACC Basketball Legend. He was a star in baseball and basketball and finished at BC in 1994, a dozen years before the Eagles alighted in the ACC.
Neither announcer had reached high school when Michael Jordan played for the Tar Heels from the 1982-84 seasons.
