  • A stellar basketball player for the Duhawks. He still is an active participant in intramurals and can be seen often in the weight room.
  • Currently in the record books as 16th leading scorer making him part of the 1,000-point club. He played in 102 games, scored 1,175 points and averaged 11.5 ppg. He is also currently 13th in rebounding history playing with 515 career rebounds, averaging 5.0 rebounds a game.
  • A two-year team captain and a member of the Midlands Conference championship team in 1966-67, earning a bid to the NAIA playoffs. He was voted to the St. Ambrose Christmas all-tournament team, all-Midlands Conference as a junior and senior year, and NAIA all-district team his senior year.
  • Graduated with a major in economics and is now an associate professor of economics at Loras. He is the chair of the economics department. Sula has a tremendous resume of community involvement, college service, papers, publications and professional meetings. Prior to teaching at Loras, he taught at Georgia State University and Boise State University.
  •             One story of note relates to my experience with Doc Kammer, the trainer. Doc did just about everything at the college except teach in a regular classroom and officiate intramurals! I frequently had tightness in my back during the early weeks of basketball practice. Doc would work his wonders on me with his new ultrasound machine. One day Doc casually mentioned that he had to be careful how he used it so he wouldn’t destroy my spine! Needless to say, that was my last therapy with Doc on that machine.
