Zach Inskeep is a Coos Bay native who has spent his entire life in and around baseball — first as a player, now as a coach shaping the next generation. As a kid, Zach served as the bat boy for Southwestern Oregon Community College, making his return to the program as Head Coach a full-circle moment.
As a player, Zach earned Far West League MVP honors at North Bend High School in 2016 before going on to become a First Team ABCA All-American at Yakima Valley Community College in 2018. He finished his playing career as a three-year starter at Marshall University, where he played all nine positions over his career — including all nine in his final collegiate game.
After his playing days, Zach moved into coaching and player development. In 2022 he coached 18U En Fuego Elite out of Olympia, Washington to a second-place finish at the CABA World Series held at Texas Tech University in Lubbock. He spent time as an assistant coach at Southwestern Oregon Community College working primarily with hitters and infielders before being named Head Coach in 2026. Since 2021 he has also worked in the private baseball training industry, and he helped found and is head coach of the South Coast Kraken, an 18U American Legion team.
Zach holds an undergraduate degree in Health Sciences from Marshall University and a Master of Business Administration from Marshall University. He is a certified Farm System hitting instructor — a system built around fundamental movement patterns and kinematic sequence efficiency — and holds Titleist Performance Institute certifications at Level 1 and Level 2 with a specialization in power.
He is a husband to Sterling and a father to Samuel.
His mission is simple: make Coos County a baseball county.
