More honors for Hansbrough

Posted Tuesday, March 11, 2008, at 12:06 PM

Tyler Hansbrough picked up some more hardware today after being named to the All-ACC first team for the third straight year Monday.

The Sporting News has named Hansbrough its Player of the Year. You can read the story here: http://www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=379160

That means Hansbrough's No. 50 will be retired by North Carolina. You can read more here: http://tarheelblue.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/031108aaj.html

That story includes the following quote:

"It definitely is a privilege to be put in that category with the other Tar Heels whose numbers are retired," Hansbrough said. "It truly is something special to have accomplished. In fact, it's kind of hard to sit here and talk about how it feels to be put in the same category as the players who are up there already. I just know it is really special and something I look at as a privilege to be part of."

And this:

Hansbrough is the sixth-leading scorer in UNC history with 2,001 points and is third alltime in ACC history for most points by a player as a junior. He set the UNC record for most free throws made and is tied for second in league history for free throws made by an ACC player with 690.

Sorry the links are not working today, still trying to figure out our new system.
