Armed with 6 AISA state championships, Chandler Lunn returns home to Macon East Academy as Head Coach of the JV Baseball team and assistant for the Varsity Baseball team. Chandler will also be filling in around the school as a substitute teacher. โ€œWe are glad to have Chandler back on campus,โ€ Coach Lott said. โ€œChandler was a great student leader when he was here as a student and hopefully will pass that as well as his hard work ethic to our students and athletes.โ€
Lunn, who graduated from Macon East Academy in 2017, was a part of the 2017 and 2022 state championships for the Knights. He attended Troy University and recently graduated with a degree in Physical Education. Chandler assisted Pike Liberal Arts school in their football, basketball, and baseball programs. He was a part of three state championships in baseball and one state championship in football for the Patriots. He interned this past fall at Wicksburg Elementary and High School in Newton, Alabama.
“I’m grateful that Coach Lott gave me this opportunity to be a part of the Knight family again with this role,” Lunn said of his return to Macon East. “Macon is an extremely special place to me. The program is heading in a great direction with the new facilities being built. There has never been a better time to be at Macon East, and Iโ€™m very excited to get to work!โ€
Chandlerโ€™s love of the game makes him a perfect Coach for upcoming student-athletes. Coach Lunn is ready to start the 2023 season with the junior varsity baseball team which begins on February 20 at Fort Dale Academy in Greenville, Alabama. Good luck and Go Knights!
Chandler is engaged to Anna Starling of Troy. We are excited to welcome Coach Lunn back to the Macon East family.
