Frank Michael Tritico (March 25, 1909 – March 5, 1966), sometimes listed as Frank Mitchell Tritico,[1] was an American football coach. He was the head coach of the Randolph Field football team during World War II. His 1943 Randolph Field Ramblers football team compiled a 9–1–1 record, including a 7–7 tie with Texas in the 1944 Cotton Bowl Classic. The 1944 team compiled a perfect 11–0 record, outscored opponents by a total of 441 to 19, and was ranked No. 3 in the final AP poll. Football statistician and historian Dr. L. H.
