Charlotte Smith's departure to coach Elon leaves hole in UNC coach's staff
Posted Jul 5, 2011
North Carolina women's basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell said she is going to miss assistant Charlotte Smith, who recently became Elon's coach. Smith served as a bridge between the UNC coaching staff and its players. As a former player, she connected with players on a level others couldn't, having excelled with the Tar Heels and as a professional player in the WNBA.
