WTEN Adds Carter to Coaching Staff


CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – North Carolina women’s tennis head coach Brian Kalbas has announced the addition of former Tar Heel Hayley Carter as an assistant coach.

Carter, one of the most decorated student-athletes in college tennis history, joins her Alma Mater after a stint as an assistant coach at Vanderbilt University.

The winningest player in ACC women’s tennis history, Carter spent four seasons at North Carolina and earned seven ITA All-America honors (four in singles, three in doubles). She posted career records of 168-25 in singles and 126-23 in doubles and led the Tar Heels to a four-year record of 123-14 and 53-3 in ACC regular season play.

Born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Carter remains the only women’s tennis player in ACC history to be named Scholar-Athlete of the Year, ACC Player of the Year and Tournament Most Valuable Player in back-to-back years.

Carter helped the Tar Heels to four regular season ACC titles, two ACC Tournament championships and the 2015 ITA Indoor National Championship title. She was also a 2017 Patterson Medal recipient which is the most prestigious athletic honor awarded at North Carolina.

Previously, Carter spent time on coaching staffs at Vanderbilt, North Carolina and Oklahoma State.
