Marty Christopher Lovrich, head coach at Enterprise High School, was arrested early in the morning on July 9, 2026, after a crash investigation on Alabama Highway 87 in Geneva County.
Alabama Law Enforcement Agency Trooper Redman stopped Lovrich around 2:48 a.m. on Tom Fain Road following the wreck.
Court records from Geneva County show Lovrich’s blood alcohol content came back at .13, above the .08 legal limit in Alabama. He was booked into the Geneva County Jail and released after posting a $500 cash bond.
His case, listed under Geneva County Court Case Number 34-TR-2026-1456, is scheduled to appear before Judge Stephen Smith on September 1, 2026. Along with the DUI citation, Lovrich was notified that his driver’s license will be suspended 45 days from the arrest date.
A History of Prior Charges
This is not Lovrich’s first arrest on a DUI charge. Coffee County Circuit Court records show he was pulled over on January 30, 2025, by ALEA Trooper Enfinger, who charged him with DUI after his blood alcohol content tested at .10.
That stop also led to additional citations for an open container, improper lights, and an improper tag light.
Lovrich posted a $1,500 bond after that arrest, and the case was assigned to Coffee County District Court Judge Joshua Wilson. Attorney Paul Young entered his appearance for Lovrich in early February 2025, and a hearing followed later that month.
Court orders from late February 2025 show the DUI charge was dismissed under certain conditions, with Lovrich paying $206 in court costs.
The open container charge was also dismissed with a $29 payment, while he pleaded guilty to the improper lights and improper tag light violations, each carrying a $226 payment. Records do not show that Trooper Enfinger was called to testify in that case.
School’s Response
Lovrich, who was recognized as Dothan Eagle’s High School Coach of the Year in 2025, joined Enterprise High School after previously coaching at Auburn University at Montgomery.
Following news of his latest arrest, the principal at Enterprise High School directed questions to the district superintendent’s office rather than commenting directly.
As of now, no further disciplinary action from the school system has been publicly announced, and it remains unclear whether Lovrich’s coaching duties will be affected while his new DUI case moves through Geneva County court.
His September court date will determine how prosecutors plan to handle the latest charge, especially given the outcome of his previous arrest just over a year earlier.
