What's My Why: Official Tony Bertuca
September 16, 2026
Tony Bertuca, Coloma
Bertuca is a 21-year MHSAA-registered official currently set to take the court this winter in basketball and the diamonds next spring in baseball and softball after previously officiating football as well.
Well it started, way 20 years ago, I was coaching rocket football and we needed a registered official on the field. And since I love working with the kids, and coaching and everything, I decided to go into officiating.
And it just grew from there – from football, baseball, softball, basketball. It’s for the love of the game.
“What’s My Why” is a weekly feature telling the stories of MHSAA-registered officials in their own words. If you’re an MHSAA official and would like to share your reason why, please submit a 15 to 45-second video, taken horizontally, to director of officials Sam Davis at [email protected].
