RALEIGH, NC -- Carter Jordan will not return as head coach of the Wolfpack wrestling program in 2012-13. Jordan served in the position for the past eight seasons.
"We would like to thank Carter for his contributions to the Wolfpack program and wish him well in the future," said Associate Director of Athletics Sherard Clinkscales, who supervises the wrestling program.
Jordan's teams posted a 69-77-3 overall record during his eight years as head coach, including a 16-26-1 mark in ACC competition.
A national search for a new head coach will begin immediately. Assistant coaches Steve Anceravage and Lee Pritts will remain on staff and continue to manage the program during the search.
On Wednesday, Jordan contacted USA Wrestling and issued a three-word statement.
"I was fired," said Jordan, who declined to comment further on the situation.
