Tennessee Director of Athletics Phillip Fulmer announced the hiring of Eve Rackham as UT's new head volleyball coach Wednesday. A first-time head coach, Rackham has spent the last nine seasons on staff at North Carolina, serving as assistant head coach since 2013.
The Sebastopol, California, native also oversaw recruiting and was responsible for UNC's offensive development.
Rackham has agreed to a five-year contract with a first-year salary of $175,000.
During Rackham's tenure on staff with North Carolina-where she stands as one of the most accomplished volleyball student-athletes in school history-the program posted a 210-77 record. She was named the AVCA Division I Assistant Coach of the Year in 2014, and the Tar Heels earned seven consecutive NCAA Tournament berths from 2010-16.
