As we prepare for the upcoming 2015 high school season, we will be taking a preseason glimpse at programs from around the state.

Team: Frank W Cox
Nickname: Falcons
Class/Division: 6A South
District/Conference: Coastal
Head Coach: Bill Conroy
Twitter Handle:  
2014 Overall Record: 15-7
2014 Post-Season Finish: Tournament Semi-Final

Number of Returning Starters/Position Players: 2
Number of Returning Starters/Pitchers: 4

Other Players of Interest for the Falcons:  Andrew Altman (P/1B, 2015), Sam Lipsmeyer (OF, 2015), Matt Oleszko (3B/OF, 2015), Dan Pertro (OF, 2015, Virginia Wesleyan), Lane Wildman (P/3B, 2015, Wingate University), Kris Devito (INF/OF, 2016), Garret Hunter (C, 2016), Garret Lyons (P/INF, 2016), Hogan Brown (SS, 2017), Austin Cabone (P, 2017), and Jacob Hawley (C, 2018)

Outlook:
Frank W. Cox is coming off of a strong 2014 regular season and just missed making the 6A South tournament. The Falcons lost the bulk of their lineup to graduation, but do return a good chunk of their pitching staff. The lineup will be led this spring by Dan Pertro (OF, 2015), Sam Lipsmeyer (OF, 2015), and Matt Oleszko (CIF/OF, 2015). The pitching staff will be led by Lane Wildman (RHP/CIF, 2015) and Andrew Altman (LHP/1B, 2015). While hurt by graduation, the Falcons do have a strong core of upperclassmen leaders to help them integrate their youngsters into the fold this spring. If Frank W. Cox can grow up quickly, they are talented enough to be a dark horse contender in the Coastal Conference and make the 6A South playoffs.
