Coach Gizzi has been an unwavering force within the North Rockland Football program for 14 years, beginning his journey at the modified level and steadily rising to become a key leader on the Varsity Coaching Staff.

In his third year as Defensive Coordinator, Coach Gizzi’s defensive strategies have set a new standard, holding opponents to just 12.3 points per game and an average of 66 passing yards.
