Jerry Santorsa
Head Softball Coach
Jerry Santorsa, a former high school girl's softball coach who remains active in the sport as a player and consultant, has been appointed head women's softball coach at Lackawanna College. "I think this is a great opportunity for me," said Santorsa, a North Scranton resident. "Lackawanna College's women's softball program speaks for itself," Santorsa added. "It's a first-rate program. I'm looking forward to continuing the success. I'm thrilled to be coaching there." Santorsa is a 1964 graduate of Holy Rosary High School, where he participated in baseball. He passed up a college baseball scholarship for personal reasons and eventually became a softball coach.
He was head softball coach at Mid Valley High School from 1988 to 1992 during which time he led the Spartanettes to five Lackawanna League and two PIAA District 2 championships.
Fifteen years ago Santorsa and John Litzy, an Old Forge resident, founded the Northeast Stars, an AAU-type program that provides softball competition for females between the ages of 12 and 18.
The Northeast Stars' 18-and-under team won the National Association of Sportsmen's Federation championship in 1997 under Santorsa and Litzy.
Santorsa's most recent involvement as a softball coach was at Penn State Worthington Scranton Campus, where he served for three years ending with the 2002 season. Santorsa, who is self-employed in Scranton, also coached in the Miss-E Softball program.
