The Sports Department of The New York Times, the day after. Game over, regrettably, but what a game it was.

Powerful — front page of tomorrow’s @dailytarheel. (H/T @caitlyn_yaede) Text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday during lockdown. Our kids shouldn’t have to live like this. 🇺🇸






We are in Marion County bright and early for the celebration of life of Joan Meyer. Longtime editor and co-publisher of the Marion Record. She died one day after police raided her home. She was 98 years old. @KSHB41




Eric Meyer, publisher of Marion County Record, says he’ll be here all night. We’ve been here all day and he’s done non-stop interviews while also trying to get something published this week. Much needed break for Meyer. @KSHB41
