David Gibralter is in his first season as the Assistant Coach for DBU Men's and Women's Golf. Bringing a unique combination of elite professional athletic experience, high-level golf background, and a dedicated commitment to Christ-centered mentorship, Gibralter steps into the role to lead DBU student-athletes both on and off the course.

Playing professionally from 1993 to 2003, he totaled 130 home runs and 643 RBI, earned three Double-A All-Star selections, and won MVP honors at the 2001 Double-A All-Star Game.

Following his baseball career, Gibralter transitioned his competitive focus to golf, playing in high level amateur events around the country.

Beyond his athletic resume, Gibralter brings business leadership as the former co-owner of P40 Financial. However, his central passion lies in integrating faith, mentorship, and athletic development.

An active member and disciple at Crosspoint Community Church in Rockwall, Texas, and a participant in Bible Study Fellowship, Gibralter’s leadership philosophy focuses on leading by example with humility and truth.
