Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the Duke University softball head coach?
Marissa Young is the head softball coach at Duke University (NCAA Division I, ACC), leading the program since 2017. This page lists the Duke staff — verified coach emails unlock with a free CommitBound account.
Should I email Marissa Young directly or an assistant coach?
Email head coach Marissa Young and CC Taylor Wike (Associate Head Coach) — one of Duke's 3 listed assistants. At most NCAA Division I programs an assistant runs the first pass on the recruiting inbox.
When should I email Duke University's coaches?
You can write to the Duke staff at any time — NCAA rules limit when NCAA Division I coaches may respond (September 1 of junior year), not when you write. Submit Duke University's recruiting questionnaire first so Marissa Young's staff finds you in its database, then follow up every 4-6 weeks with new video and stats.
