North Carolina freshman quarterback Bryn Renner will play baseball this spring for the Tar Heels, the UNC sports information office said.
Renner, a highly rated recruit who was redshirted this fall by the Tar Heels, will not miss any spring football practices, however, a UNC spokesman said.
Four other UNC freshman football players are scheduled to run track this spring: defensive backs Curtis Campbell and Josh Hunter, wide receiver Jheranie Boyd and running back Hunter Furr.
