STONY BROOK, N.Y. – Stony Brook University softball head coach
Megan T. Bryant has announced the addition of
Sabrina Kuchta to the Seawolves' coaching staff. Kuchta joins Stony Brook as an assistant coach after spending the past six years as a head coach in the Premier Girls Fastpitch organization.
"Sabrina Kuchta is a great addition to our softball program, our coaching staff, and our Seawolves family," said coach Bryant. "Her knowledge, passion, competitiveness and ability to bring out the best in her players will be a real asset to our student-athletes. Coach K knows what it takes to be successful on the field, in the classroom and in life. We are thrilled that she has decided to join us."
Most recently, Kuchta has held different coaching roles at the club level. Since 2014, she has gained experience as an assistant head coach and a solo head coach of different club teams. She has coached over 50 athletes who committed to play softball at the college level.
Kuchta had a standout five-year softball career as a catcher at DePaul University from 2015-19. She was named to the 2015 All-BIG EAST Second Team as a true freshman. She had several career-defining moments, including recording a hit and two runs batted in to secure a BIG East Championship win over St. John's as a junior in 2017. That sparked a streak of Kuchta and the Blue Demons winning three-straight BIG EAST Championships from 2017 to 2019.
Kuchta helped DePaul win three BIG EAST regular season and tournament titles and appear in three NCAA Tournaments during her career. She was a member of the BIG EAST All-Academic team during all five years of her career.
The Darien, Illinois, native earned her bachelor's degree in Sociology and Psychology, along with her master's degree in Marketing from DePaul.
Kuchta is joining a program that is coming off of a 31-16 campaign in 2022 and is looking to make a splash in the Colonial Athletic Conference (CAA) for the first time in 2023.
