Coach Alford started his coaching career at the Charlotte Latin School soon after graduating from N.C. State University. He was a 4 year starter on defense from 1992-1996 at NC State and was an NCLL All Star during his time at NC State.

Coach Alford was the Head Coach and Assistant Coach at Havre de Grace High School in Maryland from 2002 to 2013. As Head Coach he led the Warriors to a 14-5 record and their first ever Regional Championship in program history in 2006 losing to the eventual State Champion in the State Semifinals.
