First-year head coach Kayla Banwarth completed her staff for the 2020 Ole Miss volleyball season earlier this week, hiring Kent Nitta as the program’s director of operations.
Nitta is coming to Oxford after spending the last three seasons in Orem, Utah, serving in the same role for the Utah Valley State volleyball program. He also held the role during the 2016 season and was an assistant coach with the Wolverines from 1990-1996. In this position, Nitta coordinated multiple elements with the program, including travel, practice scheduling and time management.
“I am beyond excited to join the Ole Miss volleyball staff,” Nitta said.
