Member of Distinction
Roy Wuertele (Weenie) was employed with the department starting in 1965 at Seagram Stadium until 1980 when he transferred to the Plant Ops until his retirement in 1996. While at Seagram Stadium, his responsibilities included purchasing, repairing, cleaning equipment for football, hockey, soccer, track and field, Intramurals, as well as basketball, volleyball and wrestling until the Physical Activities Complex opened. The highlight of Wuertele's career was his involvement with the 1974 CIAU Championship Hockey team, the first national title of any Warriors program. Wuertele always went above and beyond and knew that doing the small things for each student-athlete would make them a better person and Warrior.
