Donna Papa reflects on career as UNC softball coach after retiring in May

Posted Jun 20, 2023
As Donna Papa’s time as UNC head softball coach has ended, she described her tenure as a challenge. "I was challenged every day to be better and to work and try to keep up with the people around me. I was challenged to be the best coach I could be and the best person I could be to my team. I’m going to miss the relationships more than anything." (Daily Tar Heel)
