As a parent, I was deeply disappointed with how my student-athlete was treated by Coach Berg-Haryasz. She refused to accommodate legitimate medical concerns, dismissing a doctor’s note and forcing an ultimatum: compete indoors or not at all. Her rigid, unsupportive approach caused unnecessary stress and ultimately pushed a dedicated student-athlete to transfer to another college.
