Tetrault is joining us for the 2025 season, after being with the Bismarck Larks in 2024 as an assistant coach.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">2024 was not Tetrault\u2019s first time around a diamond as he is currently working at Mount Marty University as an assistant coach, and previously worked at top JUCO Iowa Western Community College. In his role at Iowa Western, he showed great leadership in primarily working with the outfielders and hitters. He would also oversee the academic performances of the athletes, handle social media accounts, and assist in the daily preparation of practices and camps. Iowa Western was where Tetrault would show off most of his skills, but he was a student manager and bullpen catcher in college at the University of Arizona, a volunteer assistant at Orange County Riptide, and a high school head coach. With all his experience, it helped him climb to where he is now at Mount Marty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Through the leadership, hard work, and dedication Tetrault possesses, we are excited to have him around the Mankato diamond this summer!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">###<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>The Northwoods League is the proven leader in the development of elite college baseball players.
