FACILITIES

TRADITION NEVER GRADUATES

Over the years, the baseball facilities at Cox High School have been built, and have been improved upon. 

We take this opportunity to share with you some of this history. 
​
Forever grateful to those individuals, families, sponsors, and community partners who have been integral to the ongoing success of the Cox Falcon Baseball Program!
