Lisa Schultz was the first player that UW-Stout women's basketball coach Mark Thomas' recruited after he was hired to turn around a last place program. Thomas went straight to the dorms in pursuit of Schultz following a tip from her high school coach. Thomas' trip through the dorms paid off as Schultz was one of the pace setters for what has turned into one of the top Division III women's basketball programs. Throughout Schultz's career, the Blue Devils each year upped their record until Schultz's final season in 1991 when Stout advanced to the NAIA Tournament for the first time. Along the way, Schultz earned all-conference honorable mention recognition. Thomas called Schultz "a very intense competitor" who "always expected the best from herself and her teammates." Schultz finished her career with 858 points and 671 rebounds. Married to former Blue Devil baseball standout Mike Dormady, the couple resides in Texas with their four children.
