Shane Bergoch (Imperial) Pours His Heart

Posted on by Shane Posted in Imperial, Industry | 2 Comments

Shane Bergoch has been an avid member of the Ohio Paintball Scene since the early 2000′s. He’s played on teams like Pinnacle Woods, Tippmann Effect, and now he’s a core member of the successful PSP team Cleveland Imperial.

From the Heart and Mind of Shane Bergoch:

Ever since paintball exploded from 2004-2007, right before the economy got hit hard, sponsorship in paintball was out of control. It almost seemed that every team had a free ride, or somebody to pay for them. Teams and players that didn’t even deserve any sort of sponsorship, Read more

Great to see another team from Ohio make it to Sunday at the PSP World Cup.  Cincinnati Paintball grabbed 5th place in D4 x-ball losing a close match to PG Rise 1-3.  Bryan Baker, Aaron Bennington, Josh Ehling, David Goodwin, Matt Greene, Anthony Hicks, Jon Howard, and Eric LeBlanc of Xscape all played great and just missed the podium.  Would have been great to see Cincinnati Paintball VS Imperial in the finals!

Imperial Grabs 3rd place at PSP World Cup

Posted on by Dave Posted in Imperial, Teams, Tournaments | 3 Comments

Captain Nate Lelle, Shane Bergoch, Dany Paul, John Bartolone, Brandon Ribblett, Cody Shook, Chad Engel, Steve Vanderwist, and Joe Heppner all lived up to their reputations as a prominent D4 X-ball team at the PSP World Cup this past weekend.

After breezing through the prelims.. and ochos.. quarters.. Imperial finally met their match in D4 X-ball, Revo2. In a very close match, Revo2 never dominated Imperial. They played well, however, went up on points and never let Imperial come back. Revo2 knocked out Imperial 2-0 in the Semis.

Revo2 would go on to win the event, and Imperial still hit the podium with a 3rd place finish. Great job boys, way to represent Ohio Paintball. The only questions is, will Imperial play D3 next year? I hope so..
