Today’s a difficult day for the Knoell and Bergan family. Jace went home to be with Jesus after two separate battles with cancer. Jace was an inspiration for our team last year as he faced his challenges w/ courage & positivity. Prayers to the Knoell Family

Springs sports kicked off yesterday w/ track competing at Concordia! Indi. champs were K. Mlnarik, S. O’Neil, T. Brainard, & K. McIntyre. Here’s video of what a 6’4 230 lb DUDE looks like when he wins the 60m in 7.23. Got a feeling Coach

Nolan is the Jason Bourne of C-2 football. Vicous 6’2 210 lb OL/DE. Lives off the grid. Phone’s broke...doesn’t care to fix it. Had to convince him to create a twitter for recruiting. Recently got his 2nd DII offer from Wayne St...told nobody 🤷♂️

Last week I got to coach a Boggs boy one last time. I’ve had the joy to coach a Boggs every year I’ve been on staff at Bergan. A run of 15 consecutive seasons of Bergan Boggs players has come to an end! What an impact! Thank you Lyle, Kari, & the Boggs Boys!

What’s it mean to be a Bergan Fighting Knight? Not sure there were other teams that had the All-Nebraska QB from the 1979 State Championship team drive the bus and take stats for the 2021 State Championship game! Dave Mendlik & Koa McIntyre, Two ALL-TIME GREATS!

I said it when he signed, he would be a multi time All-Conference player in the GPAC. I’d say bigger honors are on the way as a junior and senior!

Mix of emotions. I know the final score doesn’t show it, but you men went toe to toe with the defending C1 state champs for 2.5 quarters more than anyone thought you could. You went in fearless, took your shots, kept swinging, & battled like true Fighting Knights!

Unfortunately our season came to an end with a loss. We got beat by a great Malcolm team. We were down a lot of bodies & battled hard for a bit but they are peaking at the right time. Don’t be surprised if they are in Lincoln. Thank U seniors for an incredible 4 years (38-8)
