CEDAR FALLS, Iowa --- UNI head softball coach Ryan Jacobs has announced the addition of Kyle Alsott to the coaching staff ahead of the 2025 season.
Alstott, a former volunteer assistant coach most recently at Iowa Central Community College, will join the Panthers as a volunteer assistant coach and assist the UNI staff in all-around aspects of the team, including in-state recruiting.
"We are excited to be able to add Kyle to the staff," said Jacobs. "His work ethic, passion to learn and knowledge of recruiting Iowa high school players will complement our staff greatly. He has had great experience at Iowa Central under head coach Bo Tjebben and will bring that experience and energy to our program."
Alcott spent the previous four seasons coaching softball in Fort Dodge, Iowa, where the Tritons went a combined 137-93-1 (.593) in NJCAA Division II competition. Iowa Central recorded 30+ win campaigns and trips to the NJCAA regional tournament in each of his four seasons on staff, including a 37-21 record in 2024. In 2022, the Tritons posted a 38-18 season and reached the NJCAA regional tournament championship. During his time in Fort Dodge, Alcott also helped coach Third Team All-American infielder Loghen Schnetzer, as well as 42 All-Region selections.
Northern Iowa is coming off a 33-17 season this past spring, finishing as the Missouri Valley Conference's (MVC) regular season and tournament runner-up.
