Hall of Fame
Kyle Kuenstling, class of 2008, is near the top of every major stat category in the Coe men's basketball record book, playing an integral part in the program from the first moment he stepped on campus. A three-time first-team all-conference performer, Kuenstling currently ranks second in career points, field goals and assists while owning the career records in free throws, rebounds, blocks, games played, games started and minutes played. He helped Coe to a 63-39 record during his time at Coe and was a part of the program's first conference title in 30 years. An all-around player, Kuenstling is also 11th in career scoring average and 13th in steals.
"Coming from a town of less than 1,000 people in Dunkerton, Iowa where I was born and raised, Coe was a really big change for me as a person, student, and athlete. Going to classes with more than 15 people in them, not knowing any of the people in the community, and playing with an entire team of elite players and against elite competition every single day were all new to me in my transition to Coe in 2005. Looking back on those changes in my life, it only made me a better person, and connected me with my wife and some of my best lifelong friends which I'm very thankful for."
