Fresh off their season-opening home victory over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Roy Williams and the North Carolina Tar Heels travel to Trask Coliseum on Friday night to face off with the UNC-Wilmington Seahawks.
The Seahawks are led by former UNC staffer and long-time Williams assistant C.B. McGrath, who’s in his third year with the program. Friday night’s game marks a momentous occasion for McGrath and UNCW, as it’s the first time in nearly three decades that a ranked opponent has been on campus.
The Tar Heels will face off with a UNCW team that’s gone through wholesale changes, welcoming in eight newcomers this season.
