Career

Latusa, who comes from the youth of the Vienna EV , gained his first experience as a professional ice hockey player at the EC KAC , but moved back to his hometown to the Vienna Capitals in 2001 after becoming Austrian champions with the Klagenfurt team in 2001 . There he quickly developed into a regular player and won the championship title with the team in the 2004/05 season after an outstanding season. In 2006 he took part in the KELLY'S All-Star Game of the ÖEHL. As a result, the team was largely rebuilt every season. In the course of this process, Latusa also left the team after seven years and signed a contract with EC Red Bull Salzburg in 2008 , where he still plays today. He won further championship titles with the Red Bulls in 2010, 2011 when he was the top scorer in the playoffs, 2014, 2015 and 2016. In 2014, participation in the playoff final was enough, as the victorious final opponent HC Bozen as an Italian team could win the league but not the national championship title. In 2010 he won the Continental Cup with the Salzburg team . A year later she won the European Trophy . Between 2014 and 2016 he won three Austrian championship titles in a row with the Salzburg team.

He made his debut in the senior national team on April 9, 2003 in Skalica in the 1: 5 defeat against Slovakia .

He then took part in the top division World Championships in 2011 , 2013 and 2015 .
