Kennedy Meeks is starting to get the hang of celebrating.
Just over a month ago, he was cradling the national championship trophy on the University of Phoenix Stadium court, soaking in the moment as he watched “One Shining Moment” with his teammates on the 2017 national champions.
That's a moment that still makes him marvel. Today, he'll get another one.
It's graduation day in Chapel Hill. For Meeks, the fact that it falls on Mother's Day is only appropriate, because he believes he's in position to graduate largely because of the strong women in his life.
