 Inducted Nov. 7, 2014

Nick Sturm is the leading tackler in the history of Michigan Tech football. Between 1995 and 1999, the linebacker notched 405 tackles with 214 solos and 191 assists. Only five players in Huskies history have reached the 300-tackle plateau.

Sturm gained All-America status in 1998 after a 104-tackle season. He was twice named all-conference including an All-GLIAC First Team nod in 1999 when he also gained all-region first team laurels.

The Rhinelander, Wis., native earned the Fred Baird Memorial Award as the team’s top defensive player three times (1996, 1998 and 1999). He also gained the Alan Bovard Award as team MVP in 1999. No other defensive player has won the honor since.
