Camp Coaches

• Head Coach Andrew DiBitetto - The 2024-25 season is DiBitetto’s eighth as Carolina’s head coach and 14th with the Tar Heel men’s golf program. Coach DiBitetto has led the Tar Heels to top-five finishes in each of the last four NCAA Championships, just the second time ever and the first time in more than 50 years an ACC team accomplished the feat. Carolina has finished tied for fifth, tied for fifth, tied for third and tied for fifth from 2021-24 in the NCAA Championship, the first time UNC has ever finished in the top five in more than two consecutive seasons. As a result, DiBitetto has earned ACC Coach-of-the-Year honors by a vote of his peers in each of the last three seasons. It is just the second time in ACC history and first time since 1998 a coach won the award in three consecutive seasons.

• Assistant Coach Noah Goldman - Coach Goldman is in his second season as assistant coach at UNC. He came to Carolina from Oregon State, where he coached the Beavers for six seasons, including two as associate head coach. His first season was one of the best in Carolina history as the Tar Heels won a school-record-tying seven team championships, won the ACC title for the first time in 18 seasons, became the third team in the match play era (since 2009) to advance to match play in the NCAA Championships four years in a row, had two medalists and set a record with five players on the All-ACC team. Goldman was a finalist for the 2024 Jan Strickland Award. It was the second time in four years (at two different schools) he was a finalist for the top award for assistant coaches in college golf.
