Fatjo started at Southwest in the 2009-10 school year as a science teacher and served as the assistant junior varsity coach before becoming head JV coach the following season. He also assisted then-head coach Tom Moore with the varsity squad. Fatjo has also been head varsity coach of the Eagles boys cross-country team as well as the boys water polo squad.
