Walter Marcon (28 March 1824 – 14 November 1875) was an English cricketer who played six first-class matches for Oxford University in 1843 and 1844. He had previously established a reputation for extremely fast bowling at Eton College. ==Schools cricket== Born 28 March 1824, Swaffham, Norfolk, Marcon played for the Eton First XI in 1841 and 1842 alongside another fast bowler Harvey Fellows.〔 Marcon's pace was so quick that he warranted three long stops despite the wicketkeeper standing well back.〔David Frith, ''The Fast Men'', Transworld Publishing, 1975; p.40-41.〕 WG Grace wrote in his book ''Cricket'' that Marcon's deliveries would smash a stump if making a direct hit without bouncing first; he reported his father saying that he "could hardly trace the ball" when fielding at point.〔 Marcon once bowled a ball that knocked the bat out of the batsman's hands and through the wicket.〔Derek Birley, ''A Social History of English Cricket'', Aurum Press, 1999; p.69.〕
