College Coaches Skills Camp
Featuring Tristan McIntyre

Tristan McIntyre is in his first season on the Purdue coaching staff.

No stranger to the Boilermaker baseball program, McIntyre was a three year letter winner for the Boilermakers as a pitcher from 2003-2008. McIntyre was twice named Academic All-Big Ten. He graduated in 2008 with a degree in history.

McIntyre returns to Purdue after coaching this past summer in the Great Lakes Collegiate Summer League with the Lima Locos. Under McIntyre's direction, Locos' pitchers lead the GLCSL in strikeouts (341) and were second in opponent's batting average (.258).

Before his time with the Locos, McIntyre spent two years (2008-2010) as pitching coach and recruiting coordinator at Bluffton University. Under his guidance, the Beaver pitching staff broke two school records and had two pitchers named conference pitcher of the week, including one named NCBWA Honorable Mention Pitcher of the Week. The Beavers increased their win total by four games between the 2009 and 2010 seasons, falling one game short of the school record. In addition to his coaching duties, McIntyre earned his MBA while at Bluffton.

While playing baseball at Purdue, McIntyre was also involved with numerous youth programs in the Lafayette, Ind., area. In the summer of 2006, he served as pitching coach for American Legion Post 11 out of Lafayette. In the summer of 2008, McIntyre served as pitching coach for the Lafayette Colts travel baseball club who participated in the 2008 Colt World Series.

A native of Lafayette, McIntyre was a member of the 2003 IHSAA 4A State Championship team at McCutcheon High School.

McIntyre and his wife, Andrea, reside in West Lafayette.
