He currently resides in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. Pete was the head coach for the football team at Elizabeth Forward highschool. He did poorly as a head coach. His final year of coaching there were 20 plus seniors on the team and they failed to make a run in the playoffs. General consensus is that pete only played his friends children or whoever donated the most to the boosters. Even the great Dale Thornton and Will Snyder could not save the warriors season [citation (https://archive.triblive.com/news/rotosky-returns-in-hope-of-turnaround/)]
