Guy Sundt
Guy Sundt wore many hats for the University of Wisconsin. He won eight
letters in football, basketball and track and field. He was the team
MVP and received honorable mention All American honors in football in
1921.
Sundt returned to UW shortly after graduation in 1922 to
become an assistant coach in the same three sports he competed in as an
athlete. His 1948 cross country team won the Big Ten title and finished
second in the NCAA national championship. UW had more individual
champions in track and field under Sundt's coaching than any other
period in school history.
Sundt later was director of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association and athletic director at UW.
