CHAPEL HILL – North Carolina and Connecticut have re-started their game in Kenan Stadium after a 22-minute delay caused by the failure of a light tower. The Tar Heels lead 17-6.
It’s the second delay in the Tar Heels’ three home games in 2008. The opener with McNeese State was interrupted for 90 minutes by lightning.
Bruce Carter has blocked three punts for UNC. The last of the trifecta resulted in an immediate touchdown when Matt Merletti fell on the ball in the end zone to extend the Heels’ lead to 17-3 with 5:08 left in the first half.
