IR Blog Post 1- Tarheels Vs. Hofstra

Recently the UNC Tarheels beat Hofstra 107-63. UNC's has a new freshman that many people are quite impressed with. Harrison Barnes scored 19 points in the game making all four of his three point opportunities. Coach Roy Williams his thrilled with his new star athlete and expects a lot out of him. Many people wonder how Harrison Barnes can deal with all this pressure but he just states that he just holds high expectations for himself and does the best that he can do. Overall with his passing defense and obviously shooting, Barnes played quite an impressive game and is a player that should be watched. I do not know how far UNC will go very far this year but I suspect when Barnes is an upperclassman UNC will be one of the top teams. It is impressive to see how much a young freshman can affect a team and although he is the youngest, the other players look up to him. The article never really describes Barne's high school career but I wish I could hear the story of how he got so good.
