Coach Hasty is entering his 2nd season as the Head Coach of the Lions. Coming off a difficult 1st season at the helm of the Lions baseball program, Hasty is very excited about this next year, "We have a great group of guys coming in and our program should take major strides in the right direction this season."
A 2006 graduate from Bryan College, Hasty helped restart the baseball program at Bryan in 2002 after a 16-year hiatus. Despite playing third base and left field for the Lions, Hasty was primarily a pitcher, holding career records in Innings Pitched (332) and Saves (8). Hasty saw the program grow from 8 wins his freshmen year to 24 his senior year and a 6th place finish in the Appalachian Athletic Conference. He served as a team captain for 3 years and in his senior season earned the Bryan College Athletic Department's highest honor, the Lion of Valor award, given to the outstanding Christian athlete who excelled both on and off the field.
A native of Charlotte, NC, Hasty graduated from Charlotte Latin School. He earned his bachelor's degree from Bryan and will soon receive his master's in sports management from the United States Sports Academy.
Coach Hasty has been married to the former Julie Thompson of Chattanooga, TN for three years. The couple and their infant son, Maddux, currently reside in Dayton, TN.
