North Carolina has announced multi-year deals for seven head coaches.
Women’s basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell and women’s lacrosse coach Jenny Levy, received two-year extensions. Field hockey coach Karen Shelton, men’s lacrosse coach Joe Breschi, men’s tennis coach Sam Paul, men’s soccer coach Carlos Somoano, and women’s soccer coach Anson Dorrance received three-year deals — the first multi-year deals for any of them.
Each of the seven coaches has won at least one national championship at UNC. And even though some, like Dorrance and Shelton, have been coaching at UNC for over 35 years, this is the first multi-season deal they’ve received.
