New MHS softball coach ‘excited’ for opportunity

0
By KMAN Staff on August 23, 2024 Sports
Staff photo by Lucas Boland Then-Manhattan sophomore Kierra Goos (12) gives knuckles to coach Jori Bellas in a game against McPherson during the 2021 season. Bellas was named the Indians' new head coach for the 2024-25 season after seven years as an assistant.

When the calendar flips over toward spring this school year, a new — yet familiar face — will be the head coach for Manhattan High softball.

Jori Bellas, a seven-year assistant coach for the Indians, will take over in 2024-25, athletics director Mike Marsh told The Mercury Monday morning. Bellas said she is looking forward to getting started.

“I grew up playing softball, so being able to have this opportunity is very exciting,” Bellas said. “Especially with being a part of the program the last seven years and getting to see the progress that we’ve made. It’s exciting to be on this end of it now.”
