Background
Metcalf is the son of Tommy and Mary Ann Metcalf and a sixth-generation resident of Montgomery County. He completed his education through the Conroe Independent School District and Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, from which he received a degree in Criminal Justice. Now in the banking industry, he is the vice-president and director of business development at the Spirit of Texas Bank in Conroe, in which capacity he is involved in commercial lending and real estate investment. Metcalf is affiliated with the Greater Conroe Economic Development Council, the Conroe Industrial Development Corporation, the Conroe Family YMCA, and the Montgomery County Fair Association. He is a member of the National Rifle Association and his local Lions International.
Political career
Metcalf entered the race to succeed incumbent Representative Brandon Creighton of Conroe, who instead ran successfully in a special election for the Texas State Senate for the position vacated by Republican Tommy Williams. In a six-candidate field, Metcalf finished second to opponent Ted Seago, 6,840 (41.8 percent) to 7,129 (43.6 percent). In the runoff election on May 27, Metcalf defeated Seago, 8,914 (62.1 percent) to 5,448 (37.9 percent), to win the nomination.
Metcalf then won with ease the general election on November 4, 2014. He polled 29,132 votes (83.8 percent) to the Democrat Michael Hayles, Jr., who finished with 4,748 votes (13.7 percent), and the Libertarian nominee, Bob Townsend, 887 (2.6 percent).
Metcalf is currently being challenged for his seat in the Republican Primary for the 2018 election by Christian Ehmling, a local political activist.
Personal life
He is a member of the non-denominational Fellowship of Montgomery in Montgomery northwest of Houston. Earlier, Metcalf was a three-year member of the finance committee of First Baptist Church of Conroe and a two-year chairman of the First Baptist Academy trustees. His wife, Megan, is the vice-president of the Conroe Service League, a member of the Lake Conroe Area Republican Women, and an associate member of both the North Shore and the Montgomery County Republican Women. The Metcalfs have twin daughters who were born in 2011. Megan Metcalf was a teacher until the birth of their daughters.
