UNC Softball Coach Donna Papa Fosters Connection Among Players

Posted May 17, 2023
When UNC softball players enter Anderson Softball Stadium, they must leave their phones on a rack. Players also meet individually with the coaching staff for lunch each month. Coach Donna Papa implements policies like these to help foster connections. "I think the more you can build those relationships, the more it is going to lead to success on the field."
