October 31, 2014

Brett Dietz, assistant football coach at DePauw University, is among the 2014 inductees into the Hanover College Athletic Hall of Fame.  A 2004 Hanover graduate, Dietz was a member of the college's basketball, baseball and golf teams.  As a quarterback, he helped Hanover win three Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference football championships and also earn three berths in the national playoffs.

"A two-time all-Heartland Conference selection, Dietz led the nation in total offense in 2003 with 380.5 yards per game," notes the college's announcement. "He also set school single-season records with 575 attempts, 360 completions and 4,031 passing yards. He eventually closed his collegiate career ranked third in Hanover career touchdown passes (67), fourth in career completions (583) and fourth in completion percentage (61.6%). Dietz played professionally in Finland before moving to the Arena Football League, where he later became the first player to earn rookie-of-the-year awards in the AFL (Tampa Bay Storm, 2007) and AFL2 (Louisville Fire, 2006)."
