Josh Grubbs began his time with the Trojans on Monday, June, 17 and will spend the 2024-2025 year building the rosters before the teams resume competition for the 2025-2026 seasons.

Grubbs came to Taylor after a long and successful stint leading the boy's and girl's teams at Leo High School. Grubbs won 101 matches with the Leo girl's tennis teams from 2011 through 2021 and piled up 206 wins with the boy's program from 2009 through 2023.

During his run to 307 total wins with the Lions, Grubbs was named the district's Coach of the Year in 2014 and 2016. That time was highlighted by a trip to the Indiana State Championship in 2015, as well as regional titles in 2016 and 2023 and sectional championships in 2016, 2017 and 2023.

In all, Grubbs led his squads to four sectional championships, three regional crowns and one semi-state title, while also coaching his Lions to a state title in doubles in 2018.

Prior to entering the coaching ranks, Grubbs enjoyed a standout career on the courts himself, winning 39 singles matches at Bethel College and tying for the program's record with 57 doubles wins. The two-time NAIA Scholar-Athlete also played to the MCC Doubles Championship in 2004-2005 and was named to the All-MCC squad in 2003-2004.

Grubbs graduated from Bethel in 2007 with a degree in sports studies.

Grubbs and his wife, Abby, have two sons, Brandon and Jordan.
