Andy Barlow
	Experience: 7 years Head Coach anbarlow@mit.edu 617-258-7310 Alma Mater: University of Vermont '86

Andy Barlow enters his seventh season at the helm of the Engineers' baseball program. Inheriting a team that had gone 7-17 and 1-26 in the two years prior to his arrival, Barlow immediately revitalized the club as MIT has enjoyed winning seasons in five out of his first six years. The 2009 season marked one of the most successful campaigns in program history as the Engineers eclipsed the Institute's single-season wins mark, going 25-14, and advanced to the Championship round of the NEWMAC tournament, as Barlow received the NEWMAC Coach of the Year award for the first time in his career.

Prior to that season, the Engineers had consistently been at the top of the highly competitive NEWMAC and had made three consecutive trips to the conference tournament's semifinals (2006-2008). Other key accomplishments during his tenure have been back-to-back 20-win seasons as well as two ECAC Tournament selections. During the course of the 2006 regular season MIT defeated defending NCAA national champion Wisconsin-Whitewater, nationally ranked Southern Maine, as well as perennial powerhouse Williams College en route to a 21-14 season and a first-ever appearance in the NEWMAC Championship Game. MIT's opponent in the finals, Wheaton College, went on to the Division III World Series in Appleton, Wisconsin, lost in the championship game, and finished the season with a #2 national ranking.

With 20 years of dugout experience, Barlow made the move to Cambridge from Poughkeepsie, N.Y., where he served for nine seasons as Vassar College's Head Baseball Coach.

After initiating a feeder system in Maine through the development of a youth clinic, Barlow extended his professional repertoire in 1988 to include the college scene, where he assumed duties as an assistant baseball coach at the University of Maryland. In 1991, Barlow made the switch to Hamilton, N.Y., specializing in the training of the pitching staff at Colgate University. Barlow stayed with the Red Raiders until inheriting the Vassar program in 1995, opting for the head coaching tag of a team that was just three years removed from club status. During his time with the Brewers, the Vassar program improved every season, beginning as conference basement dwellers and closing with a record-breaking season in 2002 for victories.

A 1985 graduate of the University of Vermont, Barlow's breadth of experience also includes time spent coaching in some of the top collegiate summer leagues in the country. In addition to a five-year stint for the Wareham Gateman of the prestigious Cape Cod League, Barlow also has served as an assistant coach for the Mill City All-Americans of the New England Collegiate Baseball League (NECBL). Over the years, Barlow has coached numerous aspiring and current players of Major League Baseball including Lance Berkman, Ben Sheets, and Barry Zito.

Barlow is a longtime member of the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) and is also an active member of the New England Intercollegiate Baseball Association (NEIBA).

BARLOW'S YEARLY COLLEGIATE RESULTS

Chip Forrest
	Experience: 6 years Assistant Coach Alma Mater: Suffolk University '86

MIT is fortunate to have the services of Chip Forrest, one of the most successful collegiate coaches in the New England area. Entering his sixth season, Forrest has played a big role in the Engineers recent resurgence. This season he once again will be responsible for the coaching of MIT's hitters and infielders. During his time at MIT, Forrest has turned the Engineers into one of the best offensive teams in the conference and has helped them to three consecutive appearances in the NEWMAC Tournament Semifinals (2006-2008). In 2006 the club advanced to the NEWMAC Championship Game for the first time in program history and earned a post-season bid to the ECAC Tournament.

Forrest's coaching career began in 1991 as an assistant coach at Boston College. After working three seasons for the Eagles, he was named Head Coach of Stonehill College in 1994. While there, his program enjoyed great success and in 1995, Forrest was recognized as the Northeast 10 Coach of the Year.

In 1998 Forrest moved back to Division I baseball as he accepted an assistant coaching position at Harvard University. Named Hitting, Outfield Defense, and First Base Coach, Forrest quickly made his mark. During his two season with the Crimson, the baseball program captured consecutive Ivy League Championships, made two NCAA Regional Tournament appearances, and was ranked 24th in the nation for a period of time.

Forrest's coaching career has also included stops at two of the most prestigious summer baseball leagues in the country. After serving as an assistant coach with the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape League for several seasons, he was named Head Coach of the Mill City All-Americans of the New England Collegiate Baseball League in 1999. In 2000, Forrest was named NECBL Manager of the Year.
