Who is Kim

Performance Coach & Hitting Specialist 

Coach Kim Wert brings an elite playing pedigree, relentless energy, and a player-first coaching mentality to every training session. A record-setting Division I athlete, Kim starred at the University of Missouri, where she became one of the most feared power hitters in the SEC and etched her name across the Tigers’ record books.

A transfer from Hofstra University, Kim went on to become Mizzou’s all-time home run leader, crushing 58 career homers and driving in 190 RBI, ranking second in program history. She earned NFCA All-Southeast Region First Team honors, was a multi-time All-SEC selection, and helped lead Mizzou to three NCAA Tournament appearances and a 2021 Women's College World Series berth. Known for her clutch hitting and powerful presence at the plate, Kim’s impact on Mizzou Softball helped redefine the program’s offensive identity.

After her collegiate career, she joined the staff at Saint Louis University as an assistant coach, working closely with hitters and corner infielders, before transitioning to private instruction where she now mentors the next generation of elite softball players.

Kim specializes in power hitting, corner infield defense, and offensive approach, bringing the same high standards and attention to detail that made her one of the top hitters in the country. Her sessions are built around maximizing each athlete’s potential—technically, mentally, and competitively.

She is known for her ability to connect with players, simplify complex mechanics, and create a positive environment that still holds athletes accountable. Her passion for the game is matched only by her ability to inspire and empower the players she trains.

Families and players consistently praise Kim for her knowledge, presence, and impact—both as a role model and as an instructor who delivers results.
