About this listen

In this episode of Behind the Lineup, we sit down with Coach Joey Noro, the newly named Head Baseball Coach at California University of Pennsylvania, as he enters his 10th season with the program and first at the helm. A Pittsburgh native and former standout pitcher, Noro shares his journey from Western PA to Alabama, his transition from player to coach, and the lessons he picked up during his early years away from home.

Coach Noro offers a deep dive into:

  • His path to playing college baseball in Alabama

  • The turning point that led him into coaching

  • His experiences developing All-PSAC arms and future MLB draft picks

  • The recruiting process for high school players—what metrics matter, how to reach out, and what college coaches are really looking for

  • How he built one of the top pitching staffs in the PSAC

  • His vision for the Vulcans as he takes over as head coach

We wrap the episode with a book recommendation: Mindset by Carol Dweck. We explore the power of a growth mindset for coaches and players, and why avoiding a fixed mindset is essential to long-term success on and off the field.
