BURNSVILLE, Minn. - The Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) has announced its 2025 Hall of Fame Inductees and former Winona State softball student-athlete Stacey (Struzynski) Zimmerman will be inducted into this year's class.

Stacey (Struzynski) Zimmerman stands among the most accomplished pitchers in Winona State University softball history, playing a pivotal role in one of the most successful eras the program has ever seen. Renowned for her consistency, power, and durability, Zimmerman left an indelible mark on the Warrior record books and the national stage.

A four-time All-America selection, Zimmerman capped her career by earning 2012 NSIC Pitcher of the Year and NCAA Region Pitcher of the Year honors. Her 79 career victories rank third all-time at WSU, and she remains the program's all-time leader in career shutouts with 38. She also ranks second in school history in strikeouts (849) and third in innings pitched (670) and complete games (84). Her ability to dominate in the circle was further showcased by four career no-hitters and helping the Warriors to a super region championship and an appearance in the 2009 NCAA Softball Championships in Salem, Virginia. 

Zimmerman's 118 appearances in the circle highlight her as one of the most durable and reliable pitchers to ever wear a Warrior uniform. Her contributions helped power Winona State to national relevance, anchoring a pitching staff that consistently competed at the highest level within the NSIC and NCAA Division II ranks. 

With her record-setting performances and unwavering presence on the mound, Zimmerman helped set the standard for excellence in Warrior softball—a legacy that continues to inspire future generations of WSU student-athletes.

Zimmerman currently works as a physical therapist assistant at ATI Physical Therapy and resides in Tinley Park, Illinois with her husband Brian.
