Carthage College Athletics

Kayla Lorenz joins Carthage College as the Athletic Events Graduate Assistant. She earned her Bachelor’s of Science in Sport Management and Graphic Design from North Park University in 2026. 

During her undergraduate career, she competed on the North Park softball team while serving as a member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC). Her background in athletic administration began as a marketing intern for the North Park Athletic Department. She eventually co-founded North Park’s media team in Fall 2024, leading content creation, photography, and graphic design across all programs.

In addition to collegiate experience, Lorenz is in her third year of coaching fastpitch softball with Cubs Charities. In this role, she has built meaningful connections with athletes and families, using sports as a tool to promote youth development, leadership, and athletic opportunity. 

At Carthage, she looks forward to leveraging her experience across event coordination, digital media, and game day operations to elevate the experience for student-athletes and fans.
