The end of an era

 

Jessica just finished her senior year of soccer. Her team had a great season. We had a lot of fun watching Jessica play as the varsity team starting forward. Jessie's game was a little emotional for a couple of reasons... First (and I am sure many of you will agree) I can't believe this kid is 17 and graduating. Second she was the only starting player on the team that was not able to play club ball and worked very hard to improve and earn her spot on the team. Third and final this was the last season that a Vanderhoef would play for Coach Brett Bergholm. Brett started coaching at Lehi as an assistant coach my junior year of high school. My senior year he was the head coach and with his help we won the state championship. He tried very hard to recruit Cathy but failed and she played for Lone Peak. Sarah was Brett's "T-A" her senior year, Michelle played soccer for him all three years of high school and was his team captain her senior year and now Jessie. Brett Bergholm has been an impact in the Vanderhoef home for the last 14 years(yes I am that old and yes Jessica was only 3 when I was a junior) He is an amazing soccer coach and a great friend. Thanks coach for so many great years!!
