This is Coach Jack Fridley’s first season with the Lebanon High School Baseball program. A graduate of Sycamore High School, Fridley was a versatile player on the diamond, spending most of his time as a catcher but also contributing all over the field, most often in the infield. His love for the game and desire to mentor student-athletes have carried into his coaching career as he begins his journey with the Warriors.
Currently, Fridley is a senior at the University of Cincinnati, where he is completing his degree in Mechanical Engineering and will graduate in the spring. Outside of coaching and academics, he is an avid sports fan who follows the Bengals, Reds, UC, and Ohio State. He also enjoys playing disc golf and pickleball with friends, and has recently taken up the guitar as a hobby.
In addition to coaching, Fridley serves as a volunteer leader for Young Life, with a group focused here at Lebanon High School, where he invests in the lives of local students. Family is especially important to him—his parents, Jen and Mike, remain two of his biggest supporters, his older brother Evan lives in Montana working as a sous chef, and the family dog, Obi, is a beloved ten-year-old companion.
