In his first season at the helm, the Cougars closed strong with back-to-back series wins over Mines and New Mexico Highlands.   Liberty comes to Colorado Christian University by way of Boca Raton, FL where he grew up and played for his high school and travel baseball. Liberty was coached by former Colorado Christian head coach, Gregg Mucerino, while playing high school ball at Calvary Christian Academy.  Following his high school career, Liberty continued his playing days at Nova Southeastern while he majored in Exercise Science. Liberty played three seasons for the Sharks, during the course of which he became an NCAA Division II National Champion in 2016. In his senior season in 2018, Andrew's stellar play earned him first-team NBWA All-American honors. In the 2018 season, where Liberty started 36 games, he hit .429 with 48 runs scored, 37 RBI's with 26 extra base hits.  Liberty’s parents are a huge reason as to why he played sports early on. His father was his coach for many years growing up.    Liberty lives by the bible verse Galatians 2:20, “I have been crucified with Christ, no longer I who lives but Christ who lives in me, and the life I now live in the flesh.” Liberty found this verse when he started to pursue Christ without “piggybacking” off his parents. Liberty loves this verse and has been living by it since he was 16 years old.  Some advice Liberty has given to his athletes:   “You will have a lot more fun developing other people and leading them than focusing on yourself.”   “We want our athletes to leave their jersey in a better place than where they found it. At the end of the day, nobody will remember your stats, but people will remember what type of person you were when you see them a few years down the line.”

Entering my 10th year at Colorado Christian University, I am the Swiss army of coaching. I currently work with the pitching staff and oversee baserunning and recruiting. During my 10 years at CCU I have worked with catchers and outfielders with many of my players being awarded All Conference selections.
