Carter Jordan, former Wolfpack wrestling head coach, will not return as head coach of the wrestling program next season, according to a press release from the N.C . State Athletics Department.

Jordan’s squad produced a 7-9 record for the 2011-12 regular season, picking up one ACC victory against Duke in February. His teams had an overall record of 69-77-3 with a 16-26-1 record in the ACC over the course of his eight years as the Pack’s head coach.

Sherard Clinkscales , an associate director of athletics and wrestling program supervisor, bid Jordan farewell in the press release.

“We would like to thank Carter for his contributions to the Wolfpack program and wish him well in the future,” Clinkscales said.

Wrestling’s assistant coaches, Steve Anceravage and Lee Pritts , currently remain on staff and continue to manage the program while Athletics conducts a national search for a new head coach, according to the press release.

The N.C . State Athletics Department had no further comment when contacted.
