Forehand to be Inducted into Tennessee Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame

FRANKLIN, Tenn. – This weekend, current Lipscomb University head baseball coach Jeff Forehand will be inducted into the Class of 2025 of the Tennessee Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame. 

The event will be held on Saturday during the TBCA annual clinic in Franklin. 

Entering his 25th season as a collegiate head coach, Forehand has posted a 691-645-1 record between Lipscomb and Trevecca Nazarene. 

The Lipscomb skipper enters his 19th season at the helm, posting 480 career wins with the Bisons. During his tenure, he has led the Bisons to three ASUN championships and the only three NCAA tournament appearances in program history. 

He has been chosen as the ASUN Coach of the Year on two separate occasions. 

Prior to taking over the Lipscomb program in 2007, Forehand had a highly successful stint across town at Trevecca Nazarene where he led the Trojans to a 211-142-1 in six seasons. At Trevecca, Forehand earned 2004 NAIA Region XI Coach of the year and was twice named TransSouth Conference Coach of the Year in 2004 and 2005. 

Before taking over the Trojan's program, Forehand got his head-coaching start at Nashville's Goodpasture Christian School where in seven seasons he won three state titles (1995, 1997, 1999).  He is also a three-time Tennessee State Coach of the Year honoree winning the award each of those three years.  Prior to taking over the Goodpasture program, Forehand served as an assistant coach from 1990-92 under his father, Fred, at Montgomery Bell Academy.

A native of the "Music City", the former second baseman played college ball at nearby Belmont under coach Dave Whitten graduating in 1989. Forehand also holds a Masters of Education degree from Tennessee State.
