Cody White Year-By-Year Record
UNT Vice President and Director of Athletics Jared Mosley named Cody White head softball coach on May 29, 2025. White is the sixth head coach in program history and will enter his first season with the Mean Green in 2026.
Prior to joining North Texas, White was the head coach at the University of Central Oklahoma for 12 years where he compiled a 498-171 (.744) record to become the winningest coach in program history. Among active NCAA head coaches with 12 or fewer years of experience, White leads all divisions with 498 career victories.
White's excellence was recognized with four MIAA Coach of the Year awards (2017, 2019, 2023, 2025) and NFCA Division II Central Region Coaching Staff of the Year honors in 2023 and 2025. His teams dominated conference play with a 232-57 record and captured nine MIAA championships, including four conference tournament titles.
Over 12 seasons, White led the Bronchos to 10 NCAA Division II Tournament appearances including four trips to the Super Regionals and advanced to the World Series twice in the past three seasons (2023, 2025).
The 2023 campaign marked a pinnacle for White's tenure as UCO posted a school-record 54 wins and made its first World Series appearance since 2013, finishing ranked fourth in the nation.
In 2025, White led the Bronchos to its second NCAA Division II Women's College World Series appearance in three years, posting the second-best win total in program history with 52 victories.
Under White's guidance, UCO developed elite talent with 23 All-Americans and 62 All-Region honorees, including three Division II Collegiate Commissioners Association Central Region Player of the Year winners. He coached 77 all-conference performers, including 34 first-team honorees, while seven captured league player or pitcher of the year awards.
Before becoming UCO's head coach, White served as the program's first full-time assistant coach as he helped the Bronchos capture its first NCAA Division II National Championship in 2013. The coaching staff earned the 2013 NFCA Division II National and Regional Coaching Staff of the Year award.
White began his coaching career at Edmond Memorial High School (2008-12), serving as an assistant coach for softball, baseball, basketball and volleyball programs. He helped the baseball team reach the state tournament in 2010 and spent one season as head baseball coach for the Edmond Stars American Legion club.
A native of Edmond, Oklahoma, White played college baseball at North Central Texas College (2005) before transferring to Southern Nazarene University (2006-08). At Southern Nazarene, White was named NAIA First Team All-Region and First Team All-Sooner Athletic Conference as a junior and received SAC Gold Glove honors as a senior.
White graduated from Southern Nazarene University with a bachelor's degree in social studies education. He and his wife Hillary have three children: Lillie, Brooks and Miles.
