Lycoming College

Bierbach not only helped the Lycoming College football team win a surprising MAC title in 2008 in his first year in the program, he kept the Lycoming College defense at the forefront of Division III during his next three years as a starting safety for the Warriors. He is the first player in school history to earn two All-American honors from D3football.com, earning Honorable Mention honors in 2010 before earning third team accolades in 2011. He led the MAC in interceptions both of his final two years, posting six in 2010 and five in 2011, which also helped him earn back-to-back all-region honors from D3football.com and All-MAC honors, taking first-team accolades as a senior in 2011 after earning second-team plaudits in 2010. After earning All-American honors as a junior, when he also had an 84-yard interception return for a touchdown against Widener that was named the D3Football.com Play of the Week, Bierbach became the face of a burgeoning defensive unit, earning First Team Preseason All-American honors from D3Football.com, Lindy's National College Football and The Sporting News heading into the 2011 season. A three-time D3football.com Team of the Week honoree, Bierbach posted 15 career interceptions, the seventh-most in program history, and he played in the Hansen Bowl, a small college senior all-star game in 2011. Following his football career, he also was a member of the golf team as a senior in 2012. Bierbach was also named to the MAC Century Team in 2012.
 
Still an active golfer, Bierbach also stayed close to the game of football, serving as the defensive coordinator of his high school alma mater, Northwest Area High School from 2015-21. He is a plant manager with Rehrig Pacific Company, and he and wife, Kayla, have two children, Brynley and Makenna. Bierbach still is involved in a fantasy football league with his old Warrior teammates and each year, he and his roommate and current Lycoming football coach, Chris Kish '12, take a trip to a new ballpark to attend a sporting event.
