[1] Over Bertsch's 4-year stint as a player for the Tigers, he posted several good seasons as a scorer, finishing 6th all time in school history in 1972–73 with 145 points in 124 games.
[2] The scoring prowess did not, however, translate into much on-ice success as CC finished each season with a losing record and made the playoffs only once during his tenure (albeit as the final qualifier).
[3] Once Bertsch graduated from Colorado College his playing days were over, but his affiliation with his alma mater had only just begun.
Bertsch returned to Colorado Springs in the fall of 1978 to join the staff of his former head coach Jeff Sauer as an assistant.
After leaving CC Bertsch moved on to the private sector, working for both Current Inc. and Deluxe Corporation over a 14-year span.
