Heart of a Champion: UNC's Sylvia Hatchell still going strong
Posted Feb 9, 2013
As Sylvia Hatchell continues to reach coaching milestones, she insists she’s not done. The UNC women’s head coach still has five and a half years left on her contract. She landed the No. 1 recruiting class in the country for 2013, including four Top 20 players. Just as important, at 60, she’s still got the same drive and hunger when she started her head coaching career at Francis Marion as a 23-year-old in 1975.
