Tetzlaff joined the AquaSox in 2015 as the General Manager. He has touched all the bases in baseball while working from coast-to-coast. From Triple-A clubs including the Lehigh Valley IronPigs (Allentown, PA) and Charlotte Knights (Charlotte, NC) to Single-A clubs such as the Casper Rockies (Casper, WY) he has most of the country covered. Tetzlaff has spent time as a consultant with numerous organizations including another NW League team - the Yakima Bears. He also helped re-introduce baseball to Yakima by helping start the Yakima Valley Pippins in 2014. Coming to Everett in 2015 was a natural fit and he feels like he hit a home run coming here.
A lifelong Northwest resident, Rick joined the AquaSox organization in the 2015 season. After over 20 years of owning and operating his own restaurants in the Seattle area, Rick looks forward to the challenges of ballpark operations. When you can't find him at the stadium, Rick is probably out working on his golf game.
