Andrew Bullock

Class of 1993

Former first baseman of the Red Raiders

For those who remember the old Raider baseball field, now the Lady Raider softball field will remember the short porch in right field. No one perhaps remembers better as does Andrew Bullock from the Class of 1993. Bullocks’ memories of the short porch came often as his power hitting left handed swing would send plenty of homeruns into the road beyond the fence.

Andrew played under coaches Charlie Griffeth, Allen McCannon, and Ken Morgan during the 90, 91, and 93 seasons at Madison County. Bullock recalls winning the Region Championships in 92 and 93 as highlights of his career as a Raider. “I was fortunate to be a part of a strong senior class which included Russell Seagraves, Lance Tyner, Trent McCurry, Jason Autry, Jason Pierce, and Jeff Hancock,” said Bullock. Those region championship runs were due in large part to the fact that those guys grew up playing the game together and form together great leadership. “We had grown up playing baseball together. We had great leadership and we were serious about winning,” said Bullock who now resides in Greenville, South Carolina.

After graduating from Madison County, Bullock continued his baseball career at the University Of Georgia where he earned a degree in Chemistry in 1997. Andrew then earned a doctor of medicine degree from The Medical College of Georgia in 2002. He completed urology residency in 2007 at Emory University and now is a private practice urologist at Palmetto-Greenville Urology in Greenville.

Andrew married his wife Mandy Perry, a former Raider cheerleader, in 2003. They stay busy raising their children Truman (age 5) and Sarah (age 3) to be Bulldawg followers right in the heart of Clemson and USC territory.
