Gov., legislators to honor UNC champs


Gov. Beverly Perdue and the legislature are planning to honor the national champion UNC-Chapel Hill men's basketball team today.

The squad is scheduled to appear at the legislature (which goes into session at 12:30 p.m. for the Senate and 1 p.m. for the House) and then head over to the Executive Mansion for a 2:30 p.m. event with the governor.

With all manner of bad budget news swirling around state government, politicians will be pretty happy about the chance to spechify on behalf of the team.
