Zenon “Zen” Luzniak is a U.S. soccer defender who spent three seasons in the American Professional Soccer League and two in the USISL. He also earned one cap with the U.S. national team.

Luzniak grew up in Cooper City, Florida where he attended Cooper City High School from 1980 to 1984. During his four seasons on the Cooper City soccer team, he led the team in scoring. He was also a two time All County cross country runner. He then attended Wake Forest University where he played on the men’s soccer team. In his two seasons, 1987–1988, with the Demon Deacons, Luzniak scored four goals in thirty-seven games. He tore a ligament in his right knee during his junior season and left Wake to rehab with a Netherlands team.
