Former Lee University pitcher Gray Ange has been named baseball coach at Silverdale Baptist Academy.
Seahawks athletic director Tim Couch said Ange was replacing Jonathan Adcock, who resigned in June.
“You talk with Gray and it’s obvious that he’s passionate about the sport,” Couch said. “We feel he will be a valuable asset as he begins work with our high school baseball program.”
Ange also coaches football and is in his second year as Al Rogers’ defensive coordinator. A year ago he was assistant coach for SBA’s middle school baseball team.
Ange, who also is a certified fitness trainer, previously worked at Lincoln Park Academy in Fort Pierce, Fla., where he was the pitching coach and developed a strength and conditioning program for the players. He also served as co-head coach for a fall travel baseball team, the Dirt Dawgs.
