Myer began his coaching career in 2018 as a junior varsity coach at West Fargo High School. After four seasons, he was named head varsity coach at Northern Cass High School, where he spent the last four years building a program centered on culture, player development, and competitive excellence.

In addition to coaching, Myer helps operate a long-standing daycare center in West Fargo alongside his wife and mother, who has led the business for over two decades. This role has allowed him to stay closely connected to families in the area and support early childhood growth and care.

He continued his baseball career at M|State Fergus Falls for two seasons before transferring to Valley City State University, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in business and completed two more collegiate seasons.

Fastpitch softball runs in the family—Myer’s father, Gary Myer, was a longtime pitcher in the local fastpitch scene. Anthony followed in his footsteps and has played men’s fastpitch for the past nine years. He currently competes with the Fargo Knights, a team with deep roots in the region. He has participated in multiple NAFA World Series tournaments and earned All-World Team honors in the “A” division in 2019.

“I’m excited and honored to lead the Spartan softball program,” Myer said. “I’m passionate about helping student-athletes grow not only as players but also as people. I look forward to building strong relationships, fostering a positive team culture, and continuing the proud tradition of Fargo North softball with energy, accountability, and heart.”

Andrew Potter joins the Fargo North Spartans coaching staff with extensive experience and a lifelong connection to the game of fastpitch softball. He spent multiple seasons as an assistant coach at West Fargo High School and previously volunteered under Coach Myer at Northern Cass for four years.

Fastpitch is in Andrew’s blood—he grew up watching his dad, Benjie Potter, compete at a high level, and went on to build over 20 years of his own men’s fastpitch playing experience. He currently plays with the Fargo Knights, where he continues to compete and develop his knowledge of the game.

Andrew brings strong game IQ, leadership, pitching knowledge, and a passion for teaching young athletes. The Spartans are excited to have him on staff this season.
