Scott Cherry hopes to come back to haunt Tar Heels

Posted Mar 19, 2006

Scott Cherry helped North Carolina win an NCAA Tournament championship in 1993, but today he will be trying to end North Carolina's season. Cherry is an assistant at George Mason, the team that North Carolina will play in the tournament's second round. He still wears his national-championship ring and keeps in touch with former teammates, but his loyalty now will be to the players that he coaches. (Winston-Salem Journal)
