Before Army, Tracz spent 13 seasons (2010-22) as the head coach at Marist College (Poughkeepsie, N.Y.), totaling a win-loss record of 315–282–2 (.526), and a Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference coaching record of 170–117 (.592), Marist's all-time winningest coach. An accomplished pitcher at Marist himself, Tracz was a three-time captain (2003, 2004, 2005), a Two-Time First Team All-Region selection and appeared in three NCAA Tournaments (2001, 2002, 2005).

Tracz also spent the summers of 2002 and 2003 in the Cape Cod Baseball League with the Falmouth Commodores. This marks Tracz's second stint with the Black Knights, as he served as an assistant coach during the 2009 season, helping the Army pitching staff lead the Patriot League in six statistical categories including wins, ERA, shutouts, complete games, strikeouts and saves en route to a Patriot League championship.
