Rock Hill, S.C. -- Former Winthrop men's and women's tennis coach Cid Carvalho can now add a third Hall of Fame selection to his illustrious resume.
 
 Carvalho, who is already a member of the Winthrop and Big South Conference halls of fame, will be inducted into the York County Sports Hall of Fame on May 1, 2024 at the Rock Hill Sports & Events Center.
 
Carvalho led the women to 21 Big South Conference Championship titles (1994, 1995, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019) with three runner-up finishes. No other league member, current or former, has won more than three tournament titles.

The women were regular season champions 20 times. Carvalho's women's squads earned 17 NCAA Tournament bids and in 2018 made program history with their first-ever NCAA win, a 4-3 victory over No. 20 Auburn.
  
Under Carvalho, the men's program captured eight regular-season championships (1997, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2010, 2011), five tournament titles (1997, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2010) and 11 runner-up finishes.

Highly respected in the tennis community, Carvalho was awarded the title of "High Performance Coach" by the USTA's Player Development Program in 2000. He has many years of teaching experience and served as tennis director of the City of Rock Hill from 1983 through 1997.
