Last appearing on the hardwood floor for the Titans in 1991 when she received NCAA Division III All-America first team honors, Lisa Kirchenwitz is still recognized today as one of the most prolific scorers in UW-Oshkosh and WIAC women's basketball history.

Kirchenwitz counted 1,699 points for the Titans from 1987-91, with an absence in 1990 due to an injury. Her career scoring output is currently the second-highest figure in UW-Oshkosh history and the sixth-highest mark in WIAC annals.

In addition to her 1,699 points, Kirchenwitz also ended a 95-game UW-Oshkosh career with 607 rebounds and 133 assists. The four-year starter tallied 30 or more points in a game five times, including a career-best 40 against UW-River Falls on Feb. 9, 1991. That scoring performance against the Falcons currently ranks second in UW-Oshkosh and third in WIAC history. Her 19 field goals in that game still stands as a WIAC record.

Kirchenwitz's finest season came as a senior in 1991, when she received NCAA Division III All-America and All-WIAC first team accolades after leading the Titans to a 21-5 record, a WIAC championship and a berth in the "Sweet Sixteen" of the NCAA Division III Tournament. Kirchenwitz averaged a WIAC-leading 20.9 points per game that season while averaging 6.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists per contest. In addition to her 40-point game against UW-River Falls that season, Kirchenwitz also scored 37 points in the Titans' 83-73 win over NCAA Division II UW-Parkside on Dec. 9, 1990.

Following graduation from Freedom High School in 1986, Kirchenwitz attended UW-Oshkosh and became an immediate impact player for the school's women's basketball program. In 1987, her freshman season, Kirchenwitz averaged 14.1 points and 6.8 rebounds per game for a UW-Oshkosh team that posted a 14-9 record.

The following year, Kirchenwitz helped the Titans to a 17-7 record and landed All-WIAC first team accolades after averaging 18.5 points and 7.1 rebounds per contest.

In 1989, Kirchenwitz had another outstanding season, receiving All-WIAC first team honors after averaging 17.4 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. Highlighting her individual performances that year was a 37-point performance against UW-Stout on Dec. 12, 1988. Kirchenwitz and the Titans went 16-8 that season under first-year head coach Kathi Bennett.

The 1995 UW-Oshkosh graduate currently lives in Milwaukee, where she is the quality director at Joseph Campione Incorporated in Oak Creek.
