Masayuki Satouchi Takes Over as Head Coach of Noritz Women's Team

On Apr. 11 the Noritz women's corporate team announced that former Suzuki Hamamatsu AC coach Masayuki Satouchi has been appointed its new head coach effective immediately.

During his time at Suzuki, Satouchi developed two of Japan's top marathon women, Yuka Ando, 25, all-time Japanese #4 at 2:11:36 and currently running for the Wacoal team, and London World Championships team member Mao Kiyota, 25, 2:23:47. After that he left his coaching position, but his ability as a women's coach remained highly regarded.

The Noritz team currently features three-time World Championships team member Mari Ozaki, 43, and 2020 Olympic trials qualifier Madoka Nakano, 27, on its roster. Previous head coach Yoshihiko Morioka retired at the end of January.
