University of Wisconsin - Stout

Mike Kundinger

Mike Kundinger not only holds the UW-Stout high jump records, but upon his induction date, he still holds the conference records for both the indoor and outdoor championships. The year 1993 was Kundinger's year to shine, and Kundinger rose to the occasion in front of a home crowd as Stout hosted the outdoor meet where Kundinger soared to a height of 7-feet, 2.5-inches, electrifying the entire crowd. Kundinger went on to place second at the NCAA Division III Championships in the high jump later that month. During the indoor season, Kundinger won the conference championships at Platteville with a jump of 7-feet, 0.50 inches and placed third at the NCAA championships. In 1992, Kundinger qualified to the indoor and outdoor national championships, earning All-America honors at the indoors. Kundinger also was a member of the Blue Devil basketball team, where he was the team captain, team MVP and honorable mention all-conference during the 1991–92 season.

 

Bob Bostwick

When Stout alumni football players from the late 1950s to early 1960s get together and talk about their college football coach, they don't talk about the wins and losses - they talk about the experiences. And heading up that experience was Bob Bostwick, who coached the Blue Devil football program from 1958–63. Bostwick came to Stout from Ft. Dodge, Iowa, High School, and started to turn a program that was hurting around. Although Bostwick's Stout teams never earned a conference champion, Bostwick laid some groundwork in the Blue Devil program. Words like "team" and "visionary" were used to describe Bostwick, by his former players. Bostwick, who was named the 1962 Stout Outstanding Teacher of the Year, recruited or coached several athletes who are already in Stout's Hall of Fame, including Glenn Harke, Duane Ramberg, Dick Baker, Dick Frederickson, Pat Kroll, Gay Herbert and John Zuerlein. Several of Bostwick's players went on to provide a solid base for Stout's 1965 conference championship team. Bostwick left Stout to pursue a career in sales in Iowa, but returned to education after three years and became a teacher, principal and superintendent before retiring in 1992.

 

Jack Voigt

Jack Voigt held the football program's record for career interceptions for more than 25 years, recording 15 picks in his career from 1972–75 before Eric Moe broke the record in 2002. Voigt, a two-time all-conference honorable mention defensive back, was well decorated by his team. Voigt, a native of Kiel, Wis., was the Stout freshman athlete of the year in 1972, the same year he was the football team's rookie of the year. He received the team's best tackler award during his sophomore and junior years, and was the team's most valuable player as a senior. In addition to football, Voigt was a four year letterwinner on the Blue Devil track team and competed with Hall of Fame members Barney Klecker, Dennis Fechhelm and Jules Butcher.

 

Mike Wilson

Mike Wilson excelled not only on the football field and the track, but in the classroom and as an active part of the Stout community. Extremely active in the Stout Student Association (SSA) and a football team captain, Wilson was a football All-American and an all-WSUC selection in 1990, then followed that up in the spring by winning the conference 55-meter dash and earning All-American honors in the indoor 55-meter dash and the outdoor 200-meter dash. Wilson held the school's single season record for kickoff return (26.6 y/ret), until the record was broken in 2006. Wilson received the Chancellor's Award upon graduation and was also honored with several awards from the Minority Student Union. Following short football stints with the NFL's Cleveland Browns and CFL's Toronto Argonauts, Wilson put his hospitality and tourism degree to work with a variety of companies. Wilson has worked with the NFL's Players Association as a contract adviser and is also active with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes in the Atlanta area.

 

 

Lisa (Schultz) Dormady

Lisa Schultz was the first player that UW-Stout women's basketball coach Mark Thomas' recruited after he was hired to turn around a last place program. Thomas went straight to the dorms in pursuit of Schultz following a tip from her high school coach. Thomas' trip through the dorms paid off as Schultz was one of the pace setters for what has turned into one of the top Division III women's basketball programs. Throughout Schultz's career, the Blue Devils each year upped their record until Schultz's final season in 1991 when Stout advanced to the NAIA Tournament for the first time. Along the way, Schultz earned all-conference honorable mention recognition. Thomas called Schultz "a very intense competitor" who "always expected the best from herself and her teammates." Schultz finished her career with 858 points and 671 rebounds. Married to former Blue Devil baseball standout Mike Dormady, the couple resides in Texas with their four children.
