Tom McNamara, statistically, played third fiddle for the Blue Devil hockey program, but it’s safe to say he considers his case one of being at the right place at the right time.
Along with two previous UW-Stout Athletic Hall of Fame inductees, Glenn LaChapelle (1970-73) and Terry Watkins (1970-73), McNamara (1970-73) played on a line recognized by the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame as the highest-scoring line in college hockey history at any level for its prowess in 1973. McNamara complemented LaChapelle’s 65 goals and Watkins’ 45 with 39 of his own. McNamara, Stout’s 1973 MVP, tallied 61 points at Stout, scoring 23 goals and 38 assists.
Since graduating from Stout in 1973, McNamara has been employed at one company: ITT Thermotech. McNamara currently resides in Mendota Heights, Minn., along with his wife and three children. McNamara coaches youth hockey, football and baseball.
