In late October, members of the UNC team could potentially take part in several individual events. On Oct. 23, Carolina could compete in the ITF Tallahassee event in Florida or the event in Norman, Okla., hosted by the University of Oklahoma. On Oct. 30, the possible events are the ITF Fayetteville in Arkansas or the Charlottesville Challenge hosted by the University of Virginia.
The Fall campaign will wrap up at the ITA National Fall Championships in San Diego on Nov. 2-6.
Entering his 30th year at the helm of the Tar Heel program, Paul welcomes back eight letterwinners from the 2021-22 campaign, including fifth-year senior and three-time All-America Brian Cernoch.
