Throughout the history of APSU athletics, there have been numerous players, coaches and staff members that have helped in paving the way for the current generation of student-athletes.
While their impact may be overlooked by many, their legacies should be all but forgotten to current Governors.
The All State now highlights the career of former APSU softball coach and current Athletics Communications Assistant Chris Austin, who’s impact on the university’s athletics program is unmatched.
A Clarksville native, Austin graduated from nearby Clarksville High School before attending APSU in the late 1970s. His original plan for college was to get a history degree, teaching certificate and coach at the high school level, but his path was anything but what he could have expected.
