Zach Carney

Defensive Line Assistant

Zach Carney joined the Valpo football staff as a defensive line assistant for the 2019 season. He works with the team's defensive tackles.

Carney came to Valpo immediately following his collegiate career as he recently graduated with a degree in sports business and coaching from the University of Mount Union in Alliance, Ohio. At Mount Union, Carney was a two-time national champion and was part of a team that lost only one regular-season game in his four years. A three-year letter winner, he was also a two-time member of the school’s honor roll.
