This week has been very difficult for us as Coach Bergman (Bergy, as we like to call him), the only manager the Morehead City Marlins have ever known, will step down. He has to take care of some personal issues at home and will be unable to coach next summer.
Coach Bergman was one of the most recognizable coaches the Coastal Plain League has ever had. He brought the University of Central Florida back to national prominence when he was at the helm. Of course Coach Bergman has been retired for a few years, but he still has the burning passion to step on the field and instruct and lead young men.
I had a wonderful time getting to know Coach Bergman and look forward to continuing our relationship. But now the fun begins. Our owner has been on the phone with players and coaches everyday. Coaches want to know who our manager is going to be. Recruiting the 2012 team depends a lot on what coach will be on the bench. So this next week or so is very important to our 2012 season.
