There’s more t0 Friday night than what happens on the scoreboard.

Stories from behind the scenes of a coaching family — the wins, the losses, the people, the pressure, the laughter, the faith, and the lessons we’ve learned along the way.

WELCOME TO

IN THE TRENCHES

Hi, I’m Ashley.

For more than two decades, football has been woven into nearly every part of our family's story.

I've been the coach's wife in the stands, the mom raising four kids in this life, the woman packing up another house, the nervous wreck on Friday afternoon, the biggest fan after a win and the one reminding everyone—including myself—that the sun really does come up after a loss.

In the Trenches is where those stories live. Not just football stories, but stories about marriage, motherhood, faith, community, and the people who make this life so meaningful.
