Bill Hinz

    Bill Hinz graduated from Mukwonago High School in 1951. He was a standout athlete in football, track and baseball.

    Bill did not go out for football until his junior year, but it did not take long for Coach Danielson to recognize his gift as a running back. In Bill’s senior year the team went undefeated, broke all existing school records, and captured the conference championship.

    Bill was a standout baseball player, selected captain of the team his senior year. Perhaps Bill’s most outstanding sport was track. After baseball practice, Coach Danielson would hold track practice for interested boys. Bill qualified for the State tournament in the 100, 220, and sprint relay and won the State championship in the 100-yard dash.

    Because of Bill’s love of the outdoors he elected to continue his education at the University of Wyoming where he could also hunt and fish.
