Nokona Announces The Hiring Of Jake Walker

We are excited to announce that Jake Walker will be joining our full time staff starting this fall.

A product of Milton High School, Jake graduated with a Bachelors in Kinesiology from the University of Rhode Island in 2020, and is currently finishing his MBA. Jake just completed his CSCS certification as well.

Walker was a pitcher for 5 years at URI, where he racked up 97 strikeouts for the Rams.
