RALEIGH, N.C. -- North Carolina has reached a deal with Princeton's Courtney Banghart to become the Tar Heels' next women's basketball coach, a person with knowledge of the situation said.
The person spoke Monday night to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the school hasn't commented publicly on its search. Terms weren't immediately available and the deal must be approved by UNC's board of trustees to become official.
The board has scheduled an emergency meeting via teleconference for Tuesday morning, though it didn't specify the exact agenda.
Banghart will replace Sylvia Hatchell, a Hall of Fame coach who resigned April 18 after an outside program review reported she had made "racially insensitive" comments and pressured players to compete through medical issues.
