Quinn's courage honored

North Carolina freshman defensive end Robert Quinn, a graduate of Fort Dorchester High School, has been awarded the Atlantic Coast Conference's Brian Piccolo Award. The Piccolo Award has been given annually since 1972 in memory of the late Brian Piccolo to the "most courageous" football player in the ACC.
