Erin Matson won four field hockey National Championships as a player at North Carolina.
Just a month after she graduated from UNC, she was hired as the team's head coach. She became the youngest coach in DI athletics.

this is extremely impressive
Amazing
Holy smokes
Such a smart hire. Lock her down for the next four decades.
This isn’t being talked about enough anywhere. Seriously impressive
She’s got one heavy hand with 5 rings on it
Gold medal next
DOPE!!!!! Congratulations!!
So this is what being the goat actually means
Wow my friend dated this girl for a couple years. Knew she was good at field hockey but had no idea she was this impressive.
NAWTH CAROLINUHHHHH
I think she might know a thing or two about the game
Pretty cool, she has 5 chips and she has just begun her coaching career. Wow. Have a relative that won back to back softball championships, and went into coaching. Pretty sure she still only has the 2 chips and she’s been coaching over a decade.
thats incredible
That’s super legit. Good for her.
Can’t stop won’t stop
Normally not a UNC anything fan. This is the rare exception. She’s the real deal. Fantastic story all way around.
Really shows the kind of leader she is when she can get her former teammates to see her as their coach immediately after playing together. Impressive stuff!
This is one of the coolest things I’ve read all year. She’s a legend.
Awesome
Her name is Erin Matson
Well someone clearly knows their field hockey
how did she get the job? did they fire the previous head coach? after 4 straight titles??
There are a few people you can’t say shit about what they do. She is one of them.
*Thank God she’s gone and that’s all over…* -UNC’s rivals when she graduated
good for her. now where’s the competition? not for her job, but 5 NCAA titles in a row?
Would she make the Olympic team?
Erin Matson
Are there any other instances of a player becoming a college coach so fast? She must have been one hell of a player/teammate.
Is she the GOAT?
All she does is win
The photo impressively matches the statement.
I’m gonna go ahead and ask the tough question here: TF happened to the previous 4peat winning coach?
This is also just such a stone cold photo of her. Love it
