Noah Goldman, associate head coach at Oregon State and a former collegiate player at Mississippi State, is joining the University of North Carolina men’s golf coaching staff, Tar Heel head coach Andrew DiBitetto announced today.
Goldman has coached the Beavers for six seasons, including the last two as associate head coach. In 2021, he was a finalist for the Jan Strickland Award, which is presented annually to the top assistant coach in the country.
“Noah is a rising star,” says DiBitetto. “He joins our program from Oregon State where Jon Reehoorn and the Beaver golf program are widely respected. Noah is relationship based, communicates well, is incredibly intelligent and very competitive. He’s detail oriented, loves pressure and is committed to getting better each day. Noah had a strong playing career in college and is still a very good player today. During the interview process, I left each conversation more and more impressed. We are excited to learn more about Noah and work with him and welcome Noah, Ashley, Ellie and Mila into our Carolina Golf family.”
Goldman played at Mississippi State from 2005-08 and professionally for two seasons before beginning his coaching career as a volunteer assistant with the women’s team at Samford in 2011. He spent two years (2012-14) as an assistant for both the men’s and women’s teams at Nova Southeastern and three years as the assistant men’s coach at his alma mater in Starkville, Miss., from 2014-17.

He joined the OSU program in Corvallis in the summer of 2017, where he worked with head coach Jon Reehorn.
