TROY, Ala. – Fresh off a second straight conference championship and berth in the NCAA Division II Softball World Series, Eric Newell has been named Troy's new softball head coach, Director of Athletics Brent Jones announced Thursday afternoon.
Newell led Auburn-Montgomery to back-to-back No. 3 national rankings the past two seasons as the Warhawks were among the final six teams remaining in the 2022 NCAA Division II Softball World Series after AUM won both its Regional and Super Regional matchups.
"We are thrilled to welcome Eric Newell and his family to Troy," Jones said.
