"I know I'll miss it," he says. "I hope I can someday be back coaching."
For now, St. Bonaventure's highly successful boys basketball coach is stepping down after eight years on the job.
Due to a lucrative business opportunity in his career managing heavy machinery outlets, Frank, 60, has tendered his resignation as the Seraphs head coach.
"In past years, I've been able to carve out time to do my duties as the head coach," said Frank. "This is an opportunity both nationally and internationally and it will take up all my time."
Frank, 60, helped lift St. Bonaventure to unprecedented heights in his reign as head coach, including six consecutive Tri-Valley League championships and the runner-up finish in the CIF-SS Division 4AA championships in 2018.
The Seraphs'record of 124-69 over the past seven seasons ranks No. 3 in total wins in the county, trailing only Oxnard and Oak Park.
"I'll miss most being at practice every day with the guys, and putting all our effort into chasing wins and championships," he said. "Our goal was always to hang a banner on the wall. We always pulled together for the team."
The high-water mark turned out to be the 2018 season, when the Seraphs finished 22-8 and advanced to the Division 4AA championship game before losing to top-seeded Hillcrest Christian.
"I'm proud that the program is in better shape than when I got here" Frank said. "The foundation is set, and the next coach certainly has the opportunity to do the one thing we weren't able to achieve and that's win a CIF championship."
Under Frank's tutelage, the Seraphs have turned out a number of stellar players, including Frank's own son Thomas Frank, Kai Rojas and Riles Neff.
St. Bonaventure now launches a search for Frank's successor.
