Noah Goldman, in his fourth season at the University of North Carolina was named associate head coach of the men's golf team, Andrew DiBitetto, the Johnny and Tricia Thompson head coach announced today.
"I'm thrilled for Noah's promotion to associate head coach," says DiBitetto, who begins his 10th season as UNC's head coach when the 2026-27 season gets underway Monday in Knoxville, Tenn. "Noah is one of the best golf coaches in the country and more importantly, he's an incredible person, husband, father, and role model. He has an exceptional ability to build relationships, develop players and positively impact our student-athletes both on and off the course."
A four-time finalist (2021-24-25-26) for the Jan Strickland Assistant Coach of the Year award, Goldman joined the Tar Heels in 2023 from Oregon State, where he coached the Beavers for six seasons, including two as associate head coach.

In 2025-26, The Tar Heels won three tournaments, the seventh consecutive year UNC has won at least twice, and three different players won titles. Carolina tied for ninth in the NCAA Championship and was ninth in the final rankings.
In 2024-25, Goldman helped Ford win multiple Player of the Year awards, lead the nation in scoring and shatter numerous single-season and career UNC records, and the Tar Heels finished the season ranked No. 12 in the country.
His first season in Chapel Hill in 2023-24 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 to advance to match play in the NCAA Championships four years in a row and set a record with five players on the All-ACC team.
Goldman played at Mississippi State from 2005-09 and professionally for two seasons. Prior to joining DiBitetto's staff in Chapel Hill, Goldman coached at Samford, Nova Southeastern, Mississippi State and Oregon State.
The Tar Heels begin the 2026-27 season Monday and Tuesday in the Visit Knoxville Collegiate at Fox Den Country Club in Farragut, Tenn.
