Mike Frank enters his second season as the volunteer assistant coach for EMU.  He works alongside Coach Van Ameyde with the pitchers.

As the assistant pitching coach, EMU's pitchers improved their team ERA from 5.98 to 4.80 in 2016, the best ERA since 2011. They also struck out 381 batters, tied for the third most in program history.

Frank joins the program after spending the previous season as the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator  at Rochester College in Rochester Hills, Mich.  While there, he helped guide the team to the 2015 United States Collegiate Athletic Association Small College World Series.  His team was the fourth seed out of ten teams in the tournament.

Prior to coaching, Frank was a student-athlete at Bowling Green State University where he graduated in 2014.    While a member of the Falcons, the Maumee, Ohio native finished his career with over 300 innings pitched, the only pitcher in BGSU history to do so.  He also recorded 221 strikeouts, which is second in program history and only 11 shy of the all-time record.
