Sophomore Tyler Frank, the Owls new shortstop, is taking over for the reigning conference player of the year.
Florida Atlantic baseball’s Tyler Frank spent the majority of his freshman season behind the plate, a position he hadn’t played since his youth days. He surpassed expectations and earned a spot on Conference USA’s All-Freshman Team.
Now as the beginning of his sophomore season approaches, Frank faces an even bigger task — replacing arguably the greatest player in program history, CJ Chatham.
Chatham became the highest drafted FAU baseball alum in history after the Boston Red Sox selected him in the second round of last year’s MLB Draft.
