Tom Stine '79 completed his career as the greatest quarterback in the history of Central Methodist Football. Shining on the gridiron in the late 1970’s, Stine led one of the most potent passing attacks in the country. Paired with Hairston Hall of Fame receivers Eric Trelz and Steve Luetjen, Stine set multiple program records, twelve of which still stand at the top of the CMU leaderboard. He finished his career as a two-time NAIA Division II First Team All-American (1976 & 1977). Stine owns program records in single-game yardage (584), single-game passing yards (576), single game touchdowns (6), single-season passing touchdowns (35), single-season passing yards (3,412), single-season passing yards/game (387.7), single-season passing attempts (395), single-season total yards (3,279), single-season total yards/game (364.3), career passing touchdowns (60), and total career yards (6159). He and teammate Eric Trelz set a CMU program record as well as matching the NAIA record for the longest touchdown pass with a 99 yarder against Culver-Stockton College in 1977.
