John Yurkow in an American college baseball coach, currently serving as head coach of the Penn Quakers baseball program. He was named to that position prior to the 2014 season.[1][2][3][4]

Yurkow played second base at Rowan, and earned his first coaching position with the Profs immediately after graduation. He served two years before moving to Duke for four seasons. He then accepted a position at Penn as the top assistant to head coach John Cole, who had previously coached him at Rowan. Upon Cole's firing after the 2013 seasons, Yurkow was elevated to the Head Coaching position.[1][2][3][4]
