Woody Durham called nearly 2,000 North Carolina football and men's basketball games, including the 1982, 1993, 2005 and 2009 national championships, in 40 years as the Tar Heel play-by-play announcer.
"But to relegate his impact to just numbers," said Jones Angell, the current UNC play-by-play announcer, at a celebration of life service Sunday for Durham, "would be a great disservice."
Durham was fondly remembered by his family, friends, former broadcasting partners and other members of the Carolina community on Sunday afternoon at Carmichael Arena. A 1963 UNC graduate, Durham was the Voice of the Tar Heels from 1971-2011.
