In five seasons as the head coach of her alma mater, Courtney Kupets Carter has led the University of Georgia GymDogs to a 24-32 overall record. Despite not yet replicating the success of her time as a Bulldog from 2006-2009, Kupets Carter will seemingly have three more seasons in Athens to make a statement.
On Thursday, the Athens Banner-Herald reported Kupets Carter and Georgia agreed to terms after her contract expired following the 2022 season.
The Olympian’s new deal is for the next three years (2023-2025 seasons) for $200,000 annually, the same salary she earned in 2022.
Georgia athletic department might be encouraged by its 2023 roster, which was recently finalized and named No. 4 in the country by College Gym News.
