    BUIES CREEK, N.C. -- Campbell wrestling head coach Cary Kolat announced a new addition to his coaching staff on Tuesday afternoon. Joining the Fighting Camels coaching ranks is UNC Chapel Hill graduate Evan Henderson.

    Henderson joins the Fighting Camels in his first assistant coach position after wrestling at North Carolina. He collected a 125-35 career record as a Tar Heel achieving All-American honors twice during his career. He qualified for the NCAA Wrestling National Championships all four years of his wrestling career.

    Henderson wrestled for the Tar Heels from 2011 to 2016 including a redshirt year (2014-15) in the 141 and 149-pound weight classes. He is a two-time ACC Champion claiming the 2016 ACC title at 149 pounds and the 2013 title at 141-pounds.

    "We are very happy to have Evan joining the coaching staff here at Campbell University," said head coach Cary Kolat. "He will be an asset for our middleweight athletes while he trains for the 2020 Olympic team and world teams in between. We are committed to helping Evan reach his competitive goals as much as he is committed to helping our team advance and succeed."

    The Johnstown, Pennsylvania native has a twin brother Robert who also wrestled at UNC and is the son of Allen and Lydia Henderson.
