In his tenure, Coach Walz has led Louisville to a 410-112 record and turned the program into one of the top tier programs in the country. With 15 years under his belt as the head coach, Walz has built quite the resume boasting 10 trips to the Sweet Sixteen, 6 trips to the Elite Eight, 3 trips to the Final Four, and 2 trips to the National Championship game. Coach Walz is the all-time winningest coach in program history, averaging 27.3 wins per season and reaching 20 wins for 12 consecutive seasons.
