Kirk Urso: Still Making Us Better
Posted Apr 13, 2016
Carlos Somoano is a changed man. In 2011, Somoano made the switch from assistant to head coach and led the Tar Heels to the 2011 National Championship. The victory isn’t what changed Somoano, although he did become just the second rookie head coach in NCAA history to win a national title. What changed Carlos Somoano was his team captain, Kirk Urso.
