Ana’s claim to the title “The Heritage Campus.” These touches become all the more endearing when juxtaposed against the modern classrooms and laboratories.īeyond heritage, there is a real sense of future and dynamism in this campus. Together with 19th-century-themed paintings from the Soliven family collection, these elements bolster OBMC Sta. This is a quiet space for reflection where students and faculty can come for strength and solace. On the first floor, one domed space (probably a kamalig or storeroom in the past) has been transformed into a prayer room with stained glass windows. Grillwork and wood paneling from the original structure also make pleasant surprise appearances. Want more of what you see on Chapelboro?

The latest moves leave only four returning scholarship players and, if Cadeau comes early, 11 overall, which gives Davis some roster flexibility with two scholarships still open.īut, as it stands, we are looking at the revamped roster, and with its experience there is no reason why the Tar Heels should not play their bench for more of the 200 minutes per game than they have the last two seasons and truly become one of the deepest teams in the ACC. And if Cadeau surprises all and stays in high school, Dunn is still eligible to return to Chapel Hill. Trimble does not project as a starter here or for most other Power 5 programs until he becomes a more reliable 3-point shooter and improves his assist to turnover ratio (21-20).ĭunn would have competed to start as a 2-3 man, but competition at both positions is already fierce. Neither the Trimble nor Dunn decisions are a surprise. Incoming 6-9 freshman big Zayden High has to show himself in practice to earn some minutes or perhaps face a red-shirt season. The front court is set with super senior Armando Bacot and sophomore Jalen Washington joined by transfers Harrison Ingram from Stanford and Jae’Lyn Withers from Louisville, both with two years remaining of college eligibility. Davis looks to have his eight-, nine- or ten-man rotation all set.Ĭould Dunn have beaten out sixth-year, 6-5 grad student Cormac Ryan, who is billed as the tough, smart player that Carolina lacked last season? Is Dunn better than grad student Paxson Wojcik, who’ll get minutes as a 2-3? Davis will be the starting guards, with Trimble and incoming freshman Simeon Wilcher as their back-ups.Ĭarolina has added at least two new players in the suddenly crowded backcourt. If he loses minutes, so be it.ĭunn, to the contrary, went into the portal on the last day, which is another sign that Elliot Cadeau is reclassifying and will be on campus this summer as the assumed new point guard for Hubert Davis in 2023-24.ĭunn’s game improved as a sophomore and he was expected to contend for a starting position as either a shooting guard or small forward. On the day before the transfer portal closed, Trimble said he was returning to Carolina next season, and if someone beats him out for playing time that only means the Tar Heels will be better. Seth Trimble and D’Marco Dunn have made their positions clear. Choose among 35 rotating taps and 200+ beers in the cooler. YOUR place for delicious pub food paired with local beer.
