It was a sea of Carolina blue at Thalian Hall Tuesday morning for a gathering of the Junior Diabetes Association of Wilmington. The group welcomed UNC coach Roy Williams as their guest speaker.
Coach Williams cooled his heels from coaching to speak about diabetes. The theme for Tuesday's speech was Every Day Heroes. He gave the group a pep talk to get them ready for their upcoming Walk to Cure Diabetes.
He also talked to WWAY about life for the defending National Champion Tar Heels without Tyler Hansbrough. “Hopefully, everybody will pull together as a team just like this Juvenile Diabetes Foundation group will do. It has been a fun time talking to them this morning.”
UNC's basketball season starts with its first practice Friday night. The Walk to Cure Diabetes is October 24th at the Mayfaire Town Center. For more information call 509-9899
