JV Head Coach - Louis Mazzetta
My name is Louis Mazzetta, I was born and raised in Libertyville Illinois, where I wrestled for four years in high school qualifying for the state tournament in wrestling. I went on to wrestle and study elementary education at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. I was a varsity letter winner at Luther for four years and was a Scholar All-American my senior year in 2013. After graduation I taught in a few different school districts in Iowa, teaching both elementary and junior high special education. I also spent five years coaching high school wrestling at Iowa City Liberty High School. I met my wife Lucy at Luther College, we have been married for seven years and have a one year old daughter Maeve. We moved to Wisconsin in 2022 and I am in my second year coaching wrestling in Sun Prairie, which has been a lot of fun!
