Welcome home Coach!
One of the all-time greats, Coach LaFleur will also serve as the Head Freshman Football Coach.
Teurlings Catholic High School is thrilled to announce Zach LaFleur (TCHS '14) as our new Head Baseball Coach, and his journey back to Teurlings Catholic is one worth celebrating!
Coach LaFleur knows Rebel Baseball firsthand. A three-year letter winner at TCHS, he helped lead the Rebels to the Class 4A State Championship in 2012 and to the state semifinals in 2013, earning LSWA Class 4A All-State honors as a senior.
From there, his baseball career only got better. At LSU-Eunice, he earned NJCAA Division II Third-Team All-American honors, led the nation with 63 stolen bases as a sophomore, and was part of a national championship team as a freshman. He then went on to play at UL Lafayette under legendary head coach Tony Robichaux, appearing in 91 career games as an outfielder.
After his playing days, Coach LaFleur joined the UL Ragin' Cajuns coaching staff in 2021, working his way from graduate assistant to full-time assistant coach and recruiting coordinator. During his time on staff, he was part of one Sun Belt Conference Tournament Championship (2022), one regular season Championship (2024), and four NCAA Regional appearances (2022, 2023, 2024, 2026).
A two-time UL graduate with a B.S. in Kinesiology and a Master's in Sports Management, Coach LaFleur brings elite-level experience, deep ties to this community, and a genuine love for Teurlings Catholic back to where it all started.
Welcome home, Coach LaFleur!
