VIDEO: Roy Williams honored for 800th career win

A tremendous milestone deserves all the coverage it can get.

North Carolina Tar Heels head coach Roy Williams won his 800th career game on Monday as the Tar Heels beat Syracuse.

The win came at the Dean Dome for Williams, a place named after his mentor Dean Smith. UNC used a second half run and dominated the glass to pickup the win.

After the Tar Heels won, the postgame ceremony became emotional. Current players and even some former players including Tyler Hansbrough, Wes Miller and Marcus Paige were in attendance to help celebrate.

Broadcaster Jones Angell took the mic to get things started as players wore special 800 wins shirts from Nike.
