Coleman Lewis: Lowndes Middle 3-Sport Star

Coleman Lewis comes from an athletic family, so it’s easy to see where the talented eighth grader got his athletic ability. 

Coleman attends Lowndes Middle School, and is a three-sport athlete. 

His parents both played sports at Lowndes.

His Mom, Aliana, was a cheerleader and played softball for the Vikettes, while his Dad, David, played baseball at Lowndes before going on to play at Valdosta State University.

However, David Coleman admits that his son is a lot better than he ever was.

“Coleman is very gifted in all three sports, but he’s really good in baseball. He’s way better than I ever was,” he says.

David Coleman was a part of The Vikings 2000 State Championship Team.

In addition to playing baseball for Lowndes Middle School, Coleman also plays travel baseball for local travel organization South Georgia Sports Academy and Team Elite’s national travel ball team.

His list of achievements are long: Perfect Game All-Tournament Team in the 2017 Super 25 10 and under North Florida Super Qualifier Tournament, the 2019 Perfect Game 12-U Central Florida Super Qualifier All-Tournament Team as well as the Perfect Game Super 25 Champion of the same tournament, and the MVP of the 2019 Perfect Game 12-U Major Invitational Tournament.

And the list of achievements continues.

You can see that Coleman is quite the talented baseball player, but baseball isn’t the only sport that he participates in.

He also plays football and basketball for the middle school teams.

So, how is he with his other sports?

Lowndes Middle School Athletic Director Chris Tindle, who also is Coleman’s football coach, says that the eighth grader will do well whichever sport he chooses to do as he moves to high school.
