Luke Zietlow Memorial Boys
Soccer Scholarship
In memory of Luke Zietlow
Luke Zietlow #10 is remembered as a fun loving young man, who loved being outdoors and playing
soccer. He was fun to watch on the soccer field because of his ability to kick with either foot and make
the ball go where planned. He carried a smile that will always be remembered, followed by a giggle all
can still hear.
The Hudson Community and his soccer team created a memorial in Luke’s memory at the Field of
Dreams, after he died in a car accident at the age of 15. He loved his soccer family and coaches. His
teammates were his best of friends and to this day they know his love for them. This is why “80410”
started within the soccer community. It speaks of teamwork and what team members mean to each
other. These feelings last a lifetime.
It is an honor to know that the Hudson Soccer Community continues to support athletes with a
Scholarship in Luke’s name. He would wish you all a successful and happy life … because he loved to play
the game during his dash.
