More About the 2025 TLU Athletic Hall of Fame Inductees
Greg Burnett | Baseball, 2008-20
Burnett excelled as TLU's head baseball coach for 13 years after working as the lead assistant coach and then associate head coach for Head Coach Bill Miller for nine seasons. Burnett posted a career head coaching mark of 346-190, all with the Bulldogs. Burnett's .646 winning percentage is the second-highest baseball winning percentage in school history. He is third all-time in TLU Baseball wins, trailing only TLU Athletics Hall of Famer Bill Miller and NAIA and TLU Hall of Famer Ray Katt. Burnett led TLU to the 2018 NCAA Division III World Series in Appleton, Wis., where the Bulldogs finished as the national runner-up. He also led TLU to the 2018 Spokane, Wash. Regional Championship, to the 2018 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Championship, to the 2016 and 2019 SCAC Regular Season Championships, to three American Southwest Conference West Division Championships, and to three total appearances in the NCAA Division III postseason, including hosting an NCAA DIII Regional Championship in Seguin, Texas in 2019. Burnett was twice named Coach of the Year for the ASC West Division and twice named Coach of the Year in the SCAC. Burnett led the Bulldogs to postseason appearances (either conference tournaments and/or NCAA tournaments) in 11 of the 12 years postseason opportunities were available. He coached 10 playing All-Americans, six Academic All-Americans, and three ABCA Gold Glove winners.
Ashley Jacobsen | Softball, 2012-15
The Bulldogs' softball fortunes immediately shot skyward with the addition of middle infielder Ashley Jacobsen. The Marion native came to TLU in the fall of 2010, but she did not play softball, instead choosing to focus on her academic work. When Wade Wilson was hired in the summer of 2011, he was told that the best softball player on campus wasn't yet a member of his team. Wilson made getting Jacobsen on the team one of his top priorities. Jacobsen joined the team for the 2012 season and immediately set out on a record-setting path. She hit .455 as a freshman, with 56 hits, 10 doubles, 27 RBI, and 19 steals to earn ASC West Newcomer of the Year honors. Today, Ashley Jacobsen's name appears in the Texas Lutheran Softball Record book 38 times. When she finished her career in 2015, she was TLU's career leader in batting average, hits, runs, RBI, stolen bases and at-bats. She was named the 2014 SCAC Player of the Year. Jacobsen was also a three-time NFCA All-West Region member, twice being named to the First Team. Jacobsen landed on the All-SCAC First Team in 2014 and 2015. She was also the 2013 TLU Female Student-Athlete of the Year and a member of the 2013 ASC All-West Division First Team. She was a three-time member of the CoSIDA Academic All-District 8 First Team and was named an Academic All-American in 2014. In 2021, Jacobsen was named to the SCAC 30th Anniversary Softball Team as an infielder. Jacobsen was the single-season record-holder for hits in a season, 69, a feat she accomplished twice (in 2013 and 2014) until finally being dethroned in 2025. She is the school record-holder for career batting average, at .432, and still holds the record for most RBI in a four-game series, with 14, and for the most hits in a game, with 5. She also still ranks second all-time in career at-bats (569), runs (181), and hits (246). Jacobsen led the Bulldogs to the 2013 ASC West Division Championship and to their first SCAC Championships and NCAA Tournaments, in 2014 and 2015. TLU finished as the regional runner-up in 2014. After a 19-19 record in Jacobsen and Coach Wilson's first year with TLU, the Bulldogs went 103-25 in the next three seasons, posting a 66-3 conference mark in that time. The Bulldogs winning percentage from 2013 to 2015 was .805, and its conference mark in that span was (.957).
Brent Peavy | Football, 2010-13
Brent Peavy starred at quarterback for the Bulldogs as they won the university's first Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Championship in 2013. He was the 2013-14 TLU Male Student-Athlete of the Year. A two-year starter at quarterback, Peavy led the SCAC in almost every passing category while setting new Texas Lutheran single-season school records for total offense (2,873) and touchdown passes (28). He also tied a school single-game record with six TD passes against East Texas Baptist on Oct. 5, 2013. Peavy threw only eight interceptions in 2013 in 295 attempts and set a new school record for single-season completion percentage (66.8). At the conclusion of the 2013 season, Peavy and the Bulldog offense were third in DIII in total offense (521.2), sixth in scoring offense (46.1) and ninth in passing offense (326.7). Individually, Peavy was 12th in completion percentage, 10th in passing efficiency (165.7), 10th in passing TDs, 14th in passing yards per game (285.0) and 16th in total offense per game (319.2). Peavy's primary passing target was his twin brother, Cameron, who set numerous receiving records with the Bulldogs. Brent still has two of the three best single season passing yards seasons in school history, with 2,589 and 2012 and 2,565 in 2013. He is the school-record holder for passing yards per game for a season (285.0 in nine games in 2013). He ranks third all-time in TLU history for TD passes (49). He is one of only two TLU quarterbacks in school history to throw for over 500 yards in a game. He had 501 against East Texas Baptist in 2013.
Cameron Peavy |Â Football, 2010-13
Cameron Peavy, one half of TLU's twin-brother, receiver-quarterback combo, was a D3football.com All-South Region selection in 2013 after setting new school records that season for single-season receiving TDs (13), single-season receptions (72), and single-season receiving yards (1,089). He was a First Team All-SCAC selection that year. Peavy was in the Top 20 nationally in several receiving statistical categories in 2013. He is sixth in receiving yards per game (121.0), eighth in receiving TDs (13), 11th in receptions per game (8.0), and 18th in total receiving yards (1,089). He also ranked 43rd in scoring per game (8.7). Peavy went over the 100-yard receiving mark six times in 2013 and tied his school mark for single-game TD receptions (4). He is the only Bulldog receiver with a 4-touchdown game (receiving), and he did it twice. He also is the only receiver in TLU history to have two games with over 215 yards receiving in a game. Peavy ended his Bulldog career second in the TLU DIII-era rankings for career receiving yards (2,257), career TD receptions (22), career yards per catch (15.8), and career yards receiving per game (68.4). He is third in the DIII list for total catches (143). He is third all-time over all TLU eras in receiving yards (trailing only fellow Hall of Famers Jason Trahan and Roy Maas), and he is the school record-holder for yards per game played in a season (121.0 in nine games in 2013).
TEXAS LUTHERAN ATHLETICS LEADERSHIP WALL OF HONOR CLASS OF 2025
Stuart and Michelle Dorsey
Former Texas Lutheran President Dr. Stuart Dorsey and his wife Michelle arrived on campus in 2011 and set TLU on a path of historic growth and achievement. Michelle Dorsey launched and managed the Black and Gold President's Council - a campus organization teeming with the best and brightest of TLU students (many of them TLU student-athletes). These students represented the university at campus and community events, including the TLU Athletics annual fundraiser Front Row, receiving many professional lessons and development opportunities along the way. With Michelle as an ever-present partner and confidant, Stuart Dorsey guided TLU on an athletics fundraising campaign that culminated in the construction of a new football and track & field stadium (Bulldog Stadium - Frank L. Dunne Field), a new softball stadium (Ed Kruse Stadium - Theos Morck Field), a restroom and concessions building, and lights at Katt-Isbel Baseball Field. Under Dr. Dorsey's leadership, TLU joined the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference in July 2013, re-established the university's Men's Track & Field program in 2014, and added a Men's Cross Country program, also in 2014. Dorsey also served on the NCAA Division III Presidents Council, the highest governing body in Division III. Success in nearly every corner of TLU Athletics coincided with the Dorseys' tenure at TLU. TLU Football won three consecutive SCAC Championships and played in the 2014 NCAA Division III playoffs. TLU Women's Basketball won two SCAC titles, in 2014 and 2019, and made NCAA DIII Tournament appearances in those same years. TLU Men's Basketball won four SCAC championships (three consecutive in 2015, 2016, and 2017, and a fourth in 2019) - playing in the NCAA DIII Tournament in each of those four seasons. The 2019 titles for Women's and Men's Basketball were won in Seguin on the same day in back-to-back, tournament-clinching performances, with Dr. Dorsey watching from the sidelines and celebrating on the court with the teams. TLU Baseball nearly won a national championship in 2018, winning the SCAC Championship and the NCAA West Regional Championship before finishing as the NCAA Division III national runner-up. Marquis Brown won an NCAA individual national championship in the indoor 400 meters in 2017 and nearly won a second, placing as the national runner-up with his 4x100 outdoor relay teammates in 2018. Sofia Vega made four consecutive NCAA DIII Women's Tennis national tournament appearances. TLU Softball won six consecutive SCAC Championships in the Dorsey era, captured the 2019 NCAA Regional and Super Regional Championships, and capped off that magical year with the university's first NCAA Division III team national championship, winning that title with Dr. Dorsey in attendance on May 27, 2019. The national championship came two months before his retirement as TLU's president, making sure that Dorsey's career was capped with a team national title - his first as a university president.
