Here is the school’s official press release announcing Scott as the official head coach of the Tarheels.

CHAPEL HILL --- Coleman Scott has been named the head coach of the North Carolina wrestling team, Director of Athletics Bubba Cunningham announced Wednesday. Scott, who came to UNC as an assistant in 2014 and has served as the interim head coach since June, becomes the sixth head coach in the history of the program.

"I am pleased to announce Coleman Scott as our new head wrestling coach," Cunningham said. "His energy and enthusiasm for the job is contagious and will play a key role in returning the program to the level of success it has achieved in the past. Coleman will develop his student-athletes on a personal level and coach the whole student while providing them with the tools to succeed in life beyond athletics. In addition to his work with our current students, his focus will be to recruit outstanding young men to Carolina."

"When I got into coaching I knew immediately I wanted to be a head coach one day," Scott said. "I am thankful for the opportunity that Bubba Cunningham and the University of North Carolina have given me. I had the opportunity to learn from the best under John Smith at Oklahoma State. He showed me what it takes to win on and off the mat and that's what we will do here at UNC."

A native of Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, Scott was a four-time All-America performer at Oklahoma State and the 2008 NCAA champion at 133 pounds. In addition to his success at the collegiate level, Scott has also excelled at the international level as a four-time member of the United States National Team. His crowning achievement came at the 2012 London Olympics, where he won a bronze medal in freestyle wrestling at 60 kg.

Prior to starring at Oklahoma State, Scott was a three-time Pennsylvania state champion at Waynesburg Central High School. Scott and his wife Jessica have two children: daughter Leighton Ann and son Stetson Lewis.
