Lucas: Being Elite

ANNAPOLIS—The main thing the Tar Heels will remember from the 2015 Veterans Classic is the peanut butter.

Right now, they’re thinking about Kennedy Meeks’ career-high 25 points or Joel Berry’s solid floor game or Theo Pinson’s stat-stuffing seven points, nine rebounds and five assists.

But what they’ll remember a few years from now, when they’re getting back together with former teammates in the summer at the Smith Center, will be the peanut butter. As part of the events surrounding the Veterans Classic, the players had the opportunity to eat lunch in the Naval Academy mess hall on Thursday.
