WALK THIS WAY On April 23, Berlynne Delamora drew her 44th walk of the season, breaking UNC s all-time singleseason record.

4 2017 Softball Game Notes HEAD COACH DONNA J. PAPA 32ND SEASON 1, Donna J. Papa, the NFCA Hall of Fame head softball coach at North Carolina since 1986, has helped build Carolina softball into one of the top programs in the country. Papa has led Carolina to the NCAA Tournament in 13 of the last 16 years, five regular-season ACC titles and the 2001 ACC Tournament crown. UNC has posted a winning record in 28 of her 31 seasons, with win seasons, including a campaign in 2008, which included an ACC regular-season title at 18-2 and a bid to host an NCAA Regional. Papa became the 11th Division I head coach to win 1,000 career games during the 2011 season, defeating Virginia, 5-3, as part of a doubleheader sweep on April 2. The following season, Papa became just the ninth Division I head coach ever to win 1,000 games at one school, earning her 1,000th Carolina victory against East Carolina on March 13, Papa entered 2017 ranked 11th all time in career victories, including fifth among active Division I head coaches. Carolina claimed the 2001 Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament Championship, has won five regular-season titles, and has played in the ACC Championship game on three other occasions. Papa has been named ACC Coach of the Year five times - in 1996, 1998, 2000, 2008 and Since coming to Chapel Hill in 1985, Papa has helped nine players earn 12 NFCA All-America honors with a total of 64 All-Southeast Region honors. Additionally, 12 of Papa s student-athletes have taken home 16 Academic All-District honors, including two-time Academic All-American Christine Kubin (1995, 96) Prior to arriving in Chapel Hill, Papa spent two seasons as head volleyball and softball coach at Susquehanna University.

Papa earned a bachelor s degree in physical education from the University of Connecticut in She played four seasons of softball for the Huskies and was co-captain her junior and senior seasons.

She also served on the NCAA All-Region Committee and represented the ACC on the NFCA Top-25 Selection Committee in 2006 and EDUCATION B.S., Physical Education...Univ. of Connecticut, 1979 COACHING EXPERIENCE Assistant Coach, UNCG Assistant Coach, St. John s Head Coach, Susquehanna Head Coach, North Carolina present COACHING HONORS ACC Coach of the Year... 96, 98, 00, 08, 12 NFCA Hall of Fame HEAD COACHING RECORDS Career Record... 1, Record at Carolina... 1, ACC Record Stadium this season, going 23-6 on their home turf. It is the 10th time in program history that UNC has captured at least 20 games at home and the sixth time since Anderson Stadium opened in UNC s record for home wins is 29 (29-4 in 2009). FEEL THE NEED FOR SPEED After breaking the all-time single-season record for stolen bases as a team in 2016, Carolina s baserunners haven t missed a beat. UNC stole 90 bases over 59 games in That record stood for 23 years until the 2016 Tar Heels overtook it, posting the first-ever 100-steal season with 102 swipes in 126 attempts over 57 games. The 2017 Tar Heels are on pace to break that record, totaling 98 steals over 54 games. They are second only to last season in total steals and attempts, while holding the best per-game average at 1.81 steals per season. To compare, the 2016 Heels stole 1.79 per game and the 1993 Heels had just 1.53 per game. UNC is second in the ACC and 18th in the nation in total steals, while its 1.81 steals per game are 22nd in the NCAA. Three Heels rank in the top 10 in the ACC as individuals, with Leah Murray leading the conference with 34 on the year fourth all time at UNC. The 2016 Tar Heels were the first Carolina squad ever to have more than three Heels with 10-or-more stolen bases, as four players were in double digits including 25+ by Destiny DeBerry and Aquilla Mateen. The 2017 Heels have bested that feat once again, with five different Tar Heels in double digits. In addition to Murray, Taylor Wike has a career-high 18 and DeBerry has 16. Freshmen Hailey Cole and Micaela Abbatine round out the school-record five Heels in double digits with 12 and 10, respectively. COMEBACK KIDS North Carolina has been extremely resilient all season long, erasing early deficits with big innings, especially in the fifth and seventh frames. Meanwhile, Carolina s defense has held firm, dropping just a single contest when leading after the fourth, fifth or sixth innings. The magic began on Feb. 25, when Carolina trailed 6-0 heading into the fifth inning against Miami (Ohio). Carolina scored a run in the fifth and the sixth but still trailed, 7-2, in the seventh. The Heels led off the bottom of the seventh with a single and a double, and a tworun double by Kendra Lynch started the scoring. The Redhawks made a pitching change and got the second out of the inning, but UNC never gave in and the next four batters reached safely for a six-run bottom of the seventh, as UNC walked off with a bases-loaded walk by Taylor Wike, 8-7. A three-run fifth inning broke a 1-1 tie to give UNC a 5-1 victory over No. 21 Pittsburgh in the series opener. Two days later, Carolina found itself down 7-1 in the middle of the fifth but rallied to plate six runs in the bottom of the fifth and walked off in the bottom of the ninth to complete the series sweep, 8-7. A run in the top of the seventh broke a 2-2 tie at College of Charleston, then a five-run top of the fifth pushed UNC past Northern Kentucky the following day. Virginia Tech scored three runs in the bottom of the sixth to take a 3-2 lead in game two, but UNC tied the score in the top of the seventh and won it, 4-3, in the eighth. Carolina trailed 3-1 to Longwood in the bottom of the PAGE 4 seventh, but a walk-off three-run homer by Lynch gave UNC a 5-3 victory. The Heels used another big fifth inning to complete the sweep of Boston College, coming back from down 2-0 to score six runs in the fifth and secure an 8-3 win in the series finale. UNC is 29-1 on the season when leading after six innings, but has come back to win nine games when tied or trailing after the fourth inning and six games when tied or trailing heading into the seventh. SAVING THE DAY North Carolina s pitching staff has had each other s backs all season, teaming up in nearly every game. A single pitcher has gone the distance in just 18 games this season, with Kendra Lynch and Brittany Pickett the only individuals to throw a complete game. The continued use of relief has helped keep the staff fresh through the grind of the NCAA softball season. Additionally, it has allowed for an increase in save opportunities. Pickett leads the ACC with 44 appearances but has made just 24 starts (seven of which turned into shutouts). 13 of Hannah Nommensen s 16 appearances came off the bench, while Sydney Matzko and Kellyn Daly have combined for 18 relief appearances. Pickett s speed has helped her be extremely effective in relief, as the Tar Heel rookie broke UNC s record on March 14 with her fifth save of the season and ranks third in the NCAA. Matzko has come in for two saves and Nommensen picked up the save against UMass Lowell on Feb. 11. Lynch entered the UNCG game in a save situation, pitching the final two innings with a 2-0 lead to protect, but was awarded the win as the most-effective relief pitcher after Pickett only pitched two innings as the starter and thus was ineligible for the save. UNC now has eight saves as a team, which ties the program record set in Three different Tar Heels posted at least one save for the fourth time in program history, a feat matched in 2006, 2005 and BRITTANY BLANKS OPPONENTS UNC has recorded eight shutout victories this season and Brittany Pickett has pitched in all eight of them. The rookie pitched compete-game shutouts over Purdue (Feb. 18) and NC State (March 24), then hurled a pair of three-hitters two days apart against USC Upstate (April 12) and Boston College (April 14). She pitched the first six innings at ECU and first five against Chattanooga. Sydney Matzko went the first four innings against Campbell before Pickett earned the save with the final three. All five UNC pitchers combined for a 2-0 shutout of UNCG on March 29, with Pickett going the first two and Lynch earning the win after retiring six of the final seven batters. GOING STREAKING Berlynne Delamora reached base safely in 29 straight games from Feb. 18-March 31. It was the second-longest reached base streak for Carolina since at least Kristen Brown holds the record (since 2005), putting together a 54-game streak from the end of 2015 through the majority of She reached base safely in all-but-one game as a senior, including the first 51 games of the year.
