Trinity Welcomes New Head Football Coach/Athletic Director

Interim Head of School Suzanne Satcher introduced Brian Seymore as Trinity’s next Head Football Coach and Director of Athletics. Coach Seymore comes to Trinity from Demopolis High School where he has been the director of football operations and head football coach since 2016. In his 17 years as a head football coach, Seymore has amassed 125 wins and 66 losses, with a record of 56-18 during his seven seasons at Demopolis, reaching the playoffs every year. He has more than 25 years of coaching experience from schools across south Alabama, having held head coaching positions at Mary G. Montgomery High School, Andalusia High School, and Pike Liberal Arts School.

“I very much look forward to contributing to an institution that upholds excellence in academics, athletics, and Christian values. My plan is to build lasting relationships with Trinity’s faculty, administration, alumni, and the entire Wildcat student body,” said Coach Seymore. “Building a strong athletic program starts with relationships – from the youngest in the school to the oldest. I am eager to begin forming those important connections beginning with our K3 students all the way up to our seniors, and being on one campus together helps foster that. Our students will see me in the hallways, and I will be an advocate for our teachers in the classrooms as we work together to help our student athletes be all God created them to be.”
