Katie Berglund began her role as a full-time assistant coach on June 1, 2023. Berglund joins head coach Jeremy Reinert's staff after a decorated playing career at Wartburg College.

"We are extremely excited to have Coach Berglund join our staff," said Reinert. "Her positive energy is clear and contagious. She will be a natural fit with our returning players and someone we are excited to have share the vision of the program with future Storm players on the recruiting trail."

A four-year member of the Knights soccer team, Berglund earned All-American Rivers Conference honors three times and was named Second Team All-Region at the conclusion of her final season. She led the Knights to the NCAA Tournament in three of four seasons (no tournament in 2020) and hoisted an A-R-C regular season trophy as a sophomore.

"Coach Berglund's individual and team success speaks for itself," Reinert said. "As we look to make the jump from a conference contender to a regionally- and nationally-recognized program, Coach Berglund's experience and knowledge of what it takes to win in our league and on a national stage will be an incredible boost."

In addition to a stellar playing career, Berglund developed her coaching resume as a student assistant coach in the Wartburg soccer office. She also served as a volunteer assistant coach at Denver High School and spent time working summer youth soccer camps in the Des Moines area with her former club, Vision Soccer Academy.
