Trent Dilfer is back as coach. He led the Mustangs to two state championships before leaving for UAB. That experience did not go well. He is confident that his success will return at Lipscomb Academy. Thus their schedule...

Since Coach Dilfer's first tenure at Lipscomb Academy the Mustangs have moved up from Division 2 (Private) Class AA to D2 Class AAA. While in D2 Class AA they won the State Championship in 2021 & 2022. Class AAA (12 teams total) has Baylor, McCallie, Montgomery Bell & Ensworth in the East Region while Lipscomb (3-7 overall record in 2025 & 3-2 in Region) will be in the West Region with Brentwood Academy. Will be a much steeper climb to the top of Class AAA.

Crazy to have a division with just 12 teams.

51 Private schools (Division 2) playing football in Tennessee. Division 2 has three Classes: 19 teams in A, 20 teams in AA, 12 in AAA. The difference in the number of teams in each Class is due to the wide range of enrollments in the Private schools. The 12 teams in AAA are much larger than the other two classes or they elect to play up to AAA for the competition level. Just glad they are separated from the public schools in Division 1.
