Washburn brings experience as both a player and coach to Lincoln. After spending three years as the starting center at Tarleton State, where Washburn was a two-time all-conference offensive lineman, he joined the professional ranks, playing for the West Texas Roughnecks arena team in 2010. Washburn helped lead the team to the Indoor Football League playoffs that season.
Following his playing career, Washburn was student assistant coach at Tarleton State, working as the tight ends coach and assistant offensive line coach. From there he was hired to the position of offensive line coach at Northeastern State, one of four school which are joining the MIAA for the 2012-13 athletic season. Washburn assisted in film breakdown and analysis at Northeastern State and coached a unit that allowed just 18 sacks last season. The RiverHawks boasted one of the top 10 offenses in the country in 2011, with three players coached by Washburn going on to earn all-conference honors.
Washburn also has extensive experience in recruiting, having helped bring players to both Tarleton State and Northeastern State during his time at each program. An NCAA-certified recruiter, Washburn helped organize and coordinate recruiting visits with the RiverHawks.
A 2010 graduate of Tarleton State, Washburn also holds a masters degree in Education Administration (Tarleton State, December 2010) and is working towards another in Education Leadership at Northeastern State.
