UCF head baseball coach Terry Rooney has done many things for his program in his fifth year on the job. Not only has he created a winning environment with back-to-back regional appearances, but also welcomes back former Knights who are preparing for their professional seasons.

Every fall, and early in the spring, if you stop by the UCF baseball complex you will see many familiar faces who helped put UCF on the map. One of those former Knights that works out on campus is 2004 All-American right-handed pitcher, Matt Fox.

In 2004, Fox put together one of the best seasons by a UCF pitcher in school history with 14 wins, a 1.85 ERA, 111.2 innings-pitched, 125 strikeouts and three shutouts. The Columbus, Ohio, native earned All-America honors and Atlantic Sun Pitcher of the Year before becoming UCF's fourth first-round draft pick when the Minnesota Twins took him 35^th overall after his third year in Orlando.

Fox worked his way up through the Twins organization and made his MLB debut on Sept. 3, 2010. He would later make three appearances for the Boston Red Sox in the same season. After spending 2011 in AAA Pawtucket, and accumulating a 10-4 record, Fox spent 2012 in the Seattle Mariners organization.

Currently a free agent, Fox is keeping up with his customary winter workout in at UCF. Make sure to watch the video below to hear what the "Knights of Honor" member has to say about the program.
