Williams Family Funds Spring Sports Scholarships

CHAPEL HILL—University of North Carolina men's basketball coach Roy Williams and his wife, Wanda, donated more than $600,000 in May to fund scholarships of spring sports seniors whose seasons were cut short due to the coronavirus but will be returning to UNC to compete in 2020-21.

"Student-athletes have begun to come back to campus for voluntary and now team workouts, so it's an appropriate time for us to announce that our spring sport seniors will also be able to return for another year thanks to Roy's and Wanda's generosity," says UNC Director of Athletics Bubba Cunningham.
