GREENSBORO, N.C. — We're opening the News 2 Vault to celebrate WFMY News 2 turning 75 this year.
On March 13, 1969, WFMY News 2 interviewed UNC basketball star Charlie Scott.
This interview came after Scott helped Carolina win that year's ACC regular season and tournament titles.
"I don't care which position I play as long as we win the basketball game," Scott said. "Coach Smith will put me where he feels I can do the best for the team."
Scott was UNC's first black scholarship athlete and the first African American to play on the varsity basketball team. He's one of the eight Tar Heels to win first-team all-ACC honors three or more times.
