DURHAM – Duke softball head coach Marissa Young announced an addition to her staff as Kayla Noch joins the program in the Assistant of Operations role.
Â
"Kayla is going to be such an asset to our staff and program as a whole," said Young. "She's incredibly hard working and service oriented, which not only fits in with our culture but are necessary qualities for what we need in the operations role. Kayla is eager to get back into softball and I believe that her passion for the game, organization skills and marketing experience will allow her to excel. With her proactive, determined, fun, lighthearted and witty personality, we all know she will fit right in with our cohesive staff. Kayla is the epitome of a team player who will do whatever it takes to help her team be successful and we couldn't be more excited to have her on board."
Â
Noch, a 2019 graduate of Central Michigan University, played in 149 career games. She was a three-time Academic All-MAC Team and All-America Scholar Athlete honoree. Noch was coached by Blue Devil assistant coach Jessica Bracamonte before coming to Duke in July 2019.
Â
"It's an honor to be part of one of the most elite softball programs in the country," said Noch. "I want to thank Coach Young and staff for the opportunity, and I look forward to helping Duke softball continue their success both on and off the field."
Â
Since earning a degree in marketing and logistics, Noch spent six months in the Disney College at Walt Disney World. She was most recently a Digital Content Coordinator at Know Advertising, where she supported overall marketing and advertising strategies through paid media to improve brand awareness, conversations and customer loyalty.
