Kurtz won the 2017-18 Wirtz Athlete of the Year award for his efforts on the ice and the lacrosse field.

On New Year's Eve, the Saint Ignatius Athletic Department will honor one of its top student-athletes in recent memory.

At halftime of the Basketball Cats' showdown with St. Vincent-St. Mary on December 31, we will present Bain Kurtz '18 with his 2017-18 Wirtz Athlete of the Year plaque. 

Kurtz starred for the Ice Cats, helping the program earn back-to-back-to-back Division I ice hockey state titles. The accomplished athlete also helped the Lax Cats reach the OHSAA Division I state title game in back-to-back seasons.
