John Carpenter returns as the head coach at Perry Meridian this season. The Falcons finished the 2012 campaign seven games above .500 with a 17-10 overall record, however struggled in conference play finishing just 3-4. The Falcons return five starters and four pitchers in 2013, with hopes of winning both a Conference Indiana and Sectional title.
Returning for Perry Meridian is unsigned senior Jordan Tackett. Tackett is a 6-foot-1, 170 pound RHP/OF that was 84-87 mph with his fastball earlier this winter at a PBR event. Tackett was also a key contributor at the plate in 2012, hitting over .300 as a junior.
Also returning for the Falcons is senior OF/P Brendan Dudas, a strong contributor at the plate last season hitting over .300. Fellow seniors Sawyer Mitchell (C), Dillon Douthitt (INF), and junior Collin Timmons (1B/P) will all be impact players for the Falcons in 2013.
