“I would like to thank all the players that I have had the opportunity to work with over the years,” he said in a statement posted to the school’s athletics website. “We did a great many things and accomplished some amazing victories. Thank you to all of my assistant coaches. I truly appreciate all that you have done for me, the players, and our program.”
A Springfield native, Broering was the head coach at Northmont for 10 seasons, compiling a record of 56-50.
The Thunderbolts were 10-2 in 2018 when they won the GWOC National West division and also had winning seasons in 2017, ‘19, ‘20 and ‘23 before going 2-9 this season.
They were 8-0 GWOC champs during the pandemic-shortened 2020 season but saw their run in the playoffs end in the regional finals because of a positive coronavirus test and related contact tracing.

Lastly, thank you to all the fans, supporters, and community members who helped us along the way. Thank you and God Bless. Go Bolts!”
