University of North Carolina’s head coach Roy Williams added another accolade to an already long list when the Tar Heels defeated Syracuse yesterday. Collecting his 800th career win, Williams was celebrated by the university’s sponsor, Jordan Brand. Encased in a stained oak box with laser engraving, a pair of Air Jordan 1 Pinnacle Lows rest inside the special packaging with Michael Jordan’s signature.

Roy Williams currently ranks in at number nine all time for NCAA Division I victories and is given credit for recruiting Michael Jordan during his time as an assistant coach at UNC. To continue the celebration, Jordan Brand will also be creating 800 T-shirts for UNC that will be available to purchase with the proceeds going toward the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center.
