Lander University

Zach Honeycutt is entering his third season as an assistant coach for the Lander baseball program.

Prior to coming to Lander, Honeycutt spent a season as a volunteer assistant coach at USC Upstate, where he worked primarily with catchers, while assisting with hitting and defense. Under Honeycutt's tutelage, freshman catcher Charlie Carpenter committed just two errors in 248 chances for the Spartans.  

Honeycutt also served as an assistant coach for the Forest City Owls in 2016, where he helped lead the Owls to a 33-23 overall record and the Coastal Plains League's Western Division championship for the second half of the season. The Owls finished fifth in the CPL for fewest passed balls and catcher Adan Ordonez was selected to play in the CPL All-Star game. 

A native of Locust, N.C., Honeycutt played collegiately at Mars Hill and graduated in 2015. He has worked with Marty Reed, current bullpen coach for the Atlanta Braves, and Travis Barbary, former catching coordinator for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
