Northern State Athletics Hall of Fame
Mick Wysuph earned his bachelor's degree from Northern State in 1971 and his master's in 1983. Wysuph played football from 1965-1968.

Wysuph was a first team All-SDIC selection and first team All-District 12 pick that year.
Wysuph has also earned recognition in his coaching ranks. In 1983, he led Sturgis High School to an 11-1 record and state runner-up finish. In 1987, he took Stevens a step further, winning the state championship. Wysuph's career coaching record is 107-76.
