Our news partner, The Seattle Times, has a story about Mindy Dalziel, PE teacher at Lake Forest Park Elementary and coach of the Shorecrest High School girls soccer team.

It was a rare moment where Shorecrest High School girls soccer coach Mindy Dalziel wasn’t prepared and caught off guard. 
She had no idea that a milestone victory awaited her on Tuesday, Oct. 15. 
It wasn’t until after her Shorecrest team’s 3-2 win over WesCo 3A foe Marysville Getchell on that fateful Tuesday night at Shoreline Stadium that she learned about her coaching feat.

The October 15 game against Marysville Getchell marked the 100th win of her coaching career.

Neither Dalziel or her players knew anything of this nature was on the horizon. However, in the background, Mindy’s husband, Don Dalziel, Shoreline School District athletic director, was calculating win-loss records and organized for friends, family, former teammates and former players to attend. 
The support, as much as the milestone, gave the moment more meaning for Mindy Dalziel.

Mindy herself was once a Shorecrest player, under former coach Teddy Mitalas.
