Herd alumna becomes MiLB GM

Haugh stands in the dugout of Calfee Park, the Pulaski Yankees’ home stadium, during a home game last season. The Yankees finish with a win-loss record of 32-36 and finished in fourth place in the Appalachian League East Division.

Marshall University alumna Betsy Haugh was recently hired as general manager of the Pulaski Yankees—a Rookie League affiliate of the New York Yankees.

While at Marshall, Haugh was a soccer player and sports information department intern. After playing for the women’s soccer team for over a year, a shoulder surgery caused Haugh’s decision to walk away from the soccer and start focusing on other opportunities at Marshall.
