Heather (Dorniden) Kampf
Track & Field, 2006-09
HOF Class of 2018
Whether measured by a career's worth of accomplishments or a single, defining moment, Minnesota's own Kampf (an Inver Grover Heights product then known as Dorniden) left an unprecedented mark in program history. She was the Gophers' first women's track and field national champion, claiming the indoor 800-meter title in 2006. That same year she finished national runner-up in the outdoor 800 and would later finish runner-up at the 2008 indoor championships in the same event. Over the course of her career, Kampf earned nine All-America honors (the most in program history), along with four individual Big Ten championships and six Big Ten team titles. She's also a standout in the program's academic history, as its only two-time Academic All-American.
