Joe Troche
The Luther College Football Program

DRC Sponsor: Paul Mullen

Joe Troche was named as the new Luther College Head Football Coach on December 14, 2021. He will be speaking to our members about his background, his transition to Luther College, and his objectives for the coming year.

Coach Troche takes over the Norse football program after serving as recruiting and special teams coordinator at St. Olaf College the past three years. Prior to St. Olaf, he spent eight seasons at Hamline University (2011-18), the last two as defensive coordinator (2017-18). He also coached the safeties, linebackers and defensive line. During his first six years, he was also the assistant director of undergraduate admissions for the university. The first two years of his collegiate coaching career was spent at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire as a graduate assistant working primarily with the inside and outside linebackers.

A 2010 graduate of St. Olaf with a Bachelor of Arts in exercise science, Coach Troche played linebacker and defensive end for the Oles in his first three seasons before being moved to running back in his senior season.
