Auburn Softball hires Hannah Sparks as assistant coach

Auburn has announced the addition of Hannah Sparks to its coaching staff. Sparks spent last season as a volunteer assistant coach with the national champion Oklahoma Sooners.

“We’re excited to welcome Hannah to our staff,” head coach Mickey Dean said of the hiring. “Hannah will work with our catchers as well as assist with our infielders. She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience from her time as a player and coach at Oklahoma.”

The Thomasville, Alabama native won a national championship with the Sooners as a catcher in 2017. After graduating the next year, Sparks immediately launched her coaching career.

She spent three seasons as a hitting and catching coach and recruiting coordinator at Pearl River Community College in Mississippi and as a graduate assistant at Lee University in Tennessee prior to returning to Oklahoma.
