Posted Jun 20, 2023
As Donna Papa’s time as UNC head softball coach has ended, she described her tenure as a challenge. "I was challenged every day to be better and to work and try to keep up with the people around me. I was challenged to be the best coach I could be and the best person I could be to my team. I’m going to miss the relationships more than anything." (Daily Tar Heel)
