We’d like to welcome back a truly original Tiger Alum in Coy Polk. Coy was on the first ever Dallas Tigers baseball team in 1993 when Tommy Hernandez first formed the club! Coy will be the head instructor for 9U 2010-2011 season. We are excited to have him return as an instructor in the club and bring his knowledge of baseball and the club to young players.
“It is always exciting to have former players return to coach our current players,” commented Tommy Hernandez, club President. “Coy brings with him a deep understanding of our club and what we work to accomplish in the development goals of our players. Mix that with his extensive extensive college baseball career as well as college baseball coaching and we have a real valuable addition to our club.”
