Baseball (1959-61)
HOF Class of 2016
Whether it was on the mound or in the outfield, Nathe was a standout for the Gophers. He played both positions in 1960, helping the Gophers win the program's second national title that season. He was named First Team All-Big Ten as a pitcher that year, a campaign in which he hurled a four-hitter during the College World Series. For his career, Nathe was 14-4 for the Gophers, including 13 complete games. In 1961, coming off his all-conference season toeing the rubber, Nathe was named All-Big Ten in the outfield and team MVP.
