“There was even a Maye eyebrow debate this weekend on Twitter, with one posted seeming to win the argument by declaring: ‘Chicks dig strong eyebrows.’” The Charlotte Observer wrote March 27, a day after the breathtaking win.
Maye attended William A. Hough High School in Cornelius, according to his UNC roster, where he also played four years of baseball. Fun fact: he also wore the #32 jersey in high school.
The UNC Tar Heels beat the Kentucky Wildcats 75-73. UNC will now face Oregon April 1.
