Orlando Christian Prep has had a very good baseball program in past seasons, posting good records and always showing tremendous improvement... and this season will be no different! Coming off a season with many new and young players, OCP is poised for a breakout year. The Warriors are expecting to compete this year for a district championship, and will take nothing less!
This year's baseball team is lead by seniors Adam Gonzalez and Danny Davis, both of whom offer a veteran presence. They also have a strong junior core in Christian Smith, Nick Bell and Carlos Tavarez. OCP also has some talented younger players such as Jonah Gonzalez, Josue Lopez, Aydan Abalo and many more!
The Warriors are coached by Coach Cody Hancock, Anthony Deese and Carlos Gonzalez, and they are managed by Michael Schmitt. This strong staff is filled with college and high school baseball experience, as well as years of coaching experience. The OCP coaches strive to put their players in the best position to win and succeed. In addition to coordination and skill, they use the game of baseball as a platform to teach many life lessons, as well. Another goal is to get the players to be able to break things down mentally at high speeds in order to make the correct play.
This season, the Warriors have set high expectations for themselves and the games should be extremely exciting to watch. Baseball games are played on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and sometimes Fridays. Ask a coach or player for a schedule, and stay tuned to the morning announcements, so you can come out and support our team. We wish all our spring sports teams the best luck as their seasons begin!
