UNC Sports Medicine Director helped keep student-athletes safe and competitive during pandemic


Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the first and last calls Carolina Athletic Director Bubba Cunningham made each day were to Dr. Mario Ciocca. As director of sports medicine, Ciocca put in long hours to make sure Carolina’s 800+ student-athletes stayed healthy and continued to play sports safely. Ciocca faced the complete shutdown of athletics. (UNC.edu)
