The Director

Charles Morrow started his collegiate career at Queens College, an NCAA Division II soccer power. From 1994-1996 Morrow played for the Bisons, serving as team captain. He served as assistant men's soccer coach at Lipscomb from 1996-1997 when the school was in the NAIA. Morrow then took over as head coach of both the boy's and girl's soccer teams at Goodpasture High School from 1998-2000. At Goodpasture the boy's team advanced to the regional semifinals in both 1999 and 2000. Morrow returned to the college coaching ranks in July of 2000 when he went to Vanderbilt as an assistant men's soccer coach. He left Vanderbilt for the head men's soccer coaching position at Belmont Abbey in April 2003. In two seasons at Belmont Abbey Morrow directed the men's soccer team at the NCAA Division II school to conference runner-up honors in both the regular season and the tournament. In 2003 the team finished third in the regular season, advancing to the semifinals of the conference tournament.

In his first season at the helm, Morrow posted a 5-11-1 record. Under Morrow, the Bisons earned Top Ten Most Improved NCAA Div. I Team in 2006. In 2007 the Bison broke virtually all team and individual records compiling a 5-12 record and placing 3 players on the All-Conference team. For the first time in the program's history the Bison qualified for the Conference Tournament and advanced to the Semi-Finals in 2008. In 2008 the program also placed their first player, Ben Page into the Professional ranks. "Ben has been an outstanding player for this program and a reflection of what we are developing here at Lipscomb. A place where players can not only develop their knowledge in the classroom but also excel on the field and have opportunities to play at the next level."

Morrow completed his Master of Sports Science degree at the United States Sports Academy in Daphne, Ala. He is married to the former Beth Earnest of Nashville. The couple has two sons,Trip, 5, and Will, 4.
