Lincoln Northeast High School has announced that Fletcher Zornes will lead the Rockets as its next baseball head coach. Zornes was part of the Lincoln Pius X High School state championship baseball team in 2012.
He also pitched for Grinnell College for two years before a shoulder injury ended his collegiate career. Before Northeast, Zornes coached all levels at Pius X since 2015. He also has served as a coach for senior and junior Legion baseball teams.
“I am thankful for my time at Pius X High School with Coach Charf, our entire coaching staff, and all the student-athletes I’ve served,” Zornes says.“ I am excited to start this new chapter as a Lincoln Northeast Rocket and to continue building on the foundation of success that Kyle Parker and his teams have developed over the last few years.”
Zornes is also a history teacher and has a bachelor’s degree from Nebraska Wesleyan University.
