Andy Jarvis begins his second season at Texas Tech as the volunteer assistant coach where his main responsibility is coaching the Red Raider offense. He also serves the team as the video coordinator, first base coach and assistant camp director. Jarvis joined the Red Raider Baseball program last season as he followed former coach Dan Spencer to Lubbock when Spencer joined the staff as associate head coach. Jarvis played under Spencer for four seasons at Oregon State University and left the Beaver program as the school's all-time leading hitter. He was a four-year starter in Corvalis and made a huge impact on a program that went on to win back-to-back national championships in 2006 and 2007. Jarvis became the school's all-time leader in hits, home runs, RBIs and total bases and was an Honorable Mention All-Pac 10 selection in 2000, 2002 and 2003. His career at Oregon State allowed him to move on to the professional ranks as he signed as a free agent with the Philadelphia Phillies and reached High A in the Florida State League before concluding his professional career in July 2004. Following his baseball career, Jarvis turned immediately to the coaching ranks where he was the head coach of the Cannons Baseball Club in Renton, Wash., in the American Legion Baseball League in the summers of 2005, 2006 and 2007. In 2006, he joined the coaching staff of his high school alma mater (Liberty High School) where he served as an assistant varsity coach for both basketball and baseball. Jarvis is a native of Renton, Wash., and the son of Robert and Judith Jarvis. |
