Coach Tristan Bailey

Associate Specialist Coach
Montana & Colorado

Coach Tristan Bailey is a former Montana State Bobcat Placekicker originally from Colorado Springs, Colorado. He started kicking as a Junior in High School, growing up playing soccer until that point. Graduating from High School in 2015, he spent his first collegiate season at the University of Wyoming. From there he spent a year at Colorado State just as a student. But his passion for the game and kicking led him to Coffeyville Community College where he played one season and then was recruited to Montana State. Tristan spent his final two seasons of eligibility as the starting placekicker and kickoff man for the Bobcats.

Coach Bailey has a passion for teaching the craft of kicking/punting and helping those athletes achieve their goals. He has been mainly a Placekicker and Kickoff man in the past but has also been trained as a Punter. He earned several "National Player of the Week" honors as a Bobcat and had the honor to be a member of the 2019 National Semi-Finalist team.

He is excited to be back in Montana, and helping the talented Kickers and Punters across the state!

"I am very excited to have Tristan come aboard as another Montana specialist coach. He is one of the most talented specialists I have worked with and know that his ability and experiences will make him a great coach as well. I can see his passion for the craft just from working with him and talking to him, he wanted to be the best specialist he could be on the field as a player and I know he will have the same mentality as a coach. The specialists around the state have another great option for training as Torgerson Kicking & Punting continues to grow!"
