After two-and-a half years back at his alma mater, former Academic All-American and all-conference baseball standout Mike Jaworski was promoted to Assistant Athletic Director of Development and Engagement.
    
Returning to Natchitoches in December 2017 as NSU's director of development and engagement, Jaworski wasted little time impacting the N-Club, NSU’s association of former athletic letter winners, spearheading a campaign that added 170 members in his first year and has increased total active memberships above 400 members. Along with being tasked with raising money for the Demons Unlimited Annual Fund, Jaworski helps oversee fundraising events, such as the Legends Banquet, Giving Tuesday and the Athletic Scholarship Auction. He also assists with individual sport fundraisers and organizes reunions for each sport at NSU. 
    
Jaworski brings a varied professional resume to the Demon athletic department, having coached and worked in the private sector following his graduation from NSU.  He began his coaching career as the head soccer coach and assistant baseball coach at Abbeville High School before returning to Northwestern State to serve as a baseball graduate assistant for the 2010 season while completing his post-graduate degree. 
    
Jaworski spent one season as an assistant baseball coach at Odessa College in Odessa, Texas, before embarking on a five-year stint with D-BAT Baseball, handling both business and baseball skill development at locations in Dallas and in Houston.  Before returning to his alma mater, Jaworski spent 11 months as the business development manager at United Protective Services in Houston. 

Jaworski, was a four-year baseball letterman at NSU from 2005-08, and became the 10th CoSIDA/ESPN Academic All-American in school history in 2008, earning first-team acclaim. 
    
A two-time Northwestern State graduate (B.S. in business administration, 2007; M.S. in health and human performance, 2010), Jaworski was the first Demon to homer three times in a single game, doing so against Texas-San Antonio on April 12, 2008, and held that record for 11 years until Tyler Smith tied him in 2019. 
    
That performance propelled him to Louisville Slugger National Hitter of the Week honors, one of five weekly honors he collected that season.  As a senior, Jaworski was named second-team All-Louisiana by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association and third-team All-Southland Conference at first base. 
    
Jaworski is currently serving as a board member for the Natchitoches Jaycees and is also a member of the Natchitoches Young Professionals.
