Bio
From Hall of Honor press release dated Oct. 25, 2005:
Nearly two decades after he last represented Wittenberg in the
pool, men's swimming and diving standout Paul Sutter still looms
large in the HPER Center Natatorium. He remains the program's most
accomplished distance swimmer, as evidenced by his school records
in the 500-, 1,000- and 1,650-yard freestyle events that still hold
today. The team's most valuable swimmer three times in his four
seasons in the Red & White, Sutter was also an NCAA Division
III national meet qualifier in 1985 and 1987, when he advanced to
the national meet in three events and earned a pair of honorable
mention All-America honors. During his career, Sutter held school
records in five individual events and was a member of three
record-setting relay teams. A native of Sandusky, Ohio, Sutter
graduated from Wittenberg with a degree in biology and a minor in
chemistry in 1987. He is now a chaplain with the United States Air
Force in Tampa, Fla.
