Assistant Coach: Andrew Carson
 

Andrew Carson enters his second season as the Assistant Coach of the Jackson Christian School Baseball Club.  Carson graduated from Freed-Hardeman University in the Spring of 2007 and immediately began teaching at Jackson Christian School in the fall of 2007.  He is currently teaching 8^th grade Science, and he is also serving as the Head Coach for the Middle School boys basketball team.  Carson was a double major at Freed-Hardeman University and received degrees in Kinesiology and Bible.  He played baseball for the Freed-Hardeman University Lions from 2003-2006.  During this time, he learned the value of hard work, positive attitudes, and a determined spirit, and he plans to pass these traits on to his players.  During his time at FHU, he patrolled left field and was always a threat on the base paths.  The highlights of Carson’s playing career was a two-run home run against Murray State, hitting the game winning double against Cumberland University, and stealing 24 bases his senior season.  Carson is excited about the coaching opportunity that lies in front of him.  He says, “I am so blessed to be a part of a program that truly cares about the individual.  I want my players to know that athletics are important, but giving glory to God is the most rewarding aspect of this game.”
