Randy Putman has compiled quite the baseball rèsumè during his tenure atop the Wallace State program.

Seven state championships, six National Junior College World Series appearances and a terrific 23 playoff berths in 25 years as the head man of the Lions.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

He’s coached 31 players who’ve went on to play baseball for professional organizations, including Derek Holland, Jake Elmore, and Atlanta Braves closer and National League All-Star Craig Kimbrel — among many others.

Putman was inducted into the Alabama Junior College Hall of Fame in 1991, the NJCAA Coaches Hall of Fame in 2006, the Alabama Coaches Hall of Fame in 2009 and the Cullman County Sports Hall of Fame in a 2012 ceremony.

Late in March, Putman added another feather to his baseball cap during a 7-2 triumph over Lawson State.

His 900th career victory at Wallace State.

“Getting to 900 is a thrill for me,” Putman said. “It brings back a lot of memories. Baseball is the greatest game in the world because it’s made for the memories. I’ve had so many great memories. It means I’ve exchanged lineups a lot of times and made a lot of pitching changes.

“I appreciate all the former players who have been here. I was fortunate enough to have some here for this. There are a lot of reasons it’s a thrill to me and a lot of reasons that have played into the success here, starting with the administration and working all the way down.”

From one iron man to another, a recap of the year in Cullman County sports wouldn’t be complete without Bob Kurtz.

Most people on the planet would be content with having only a single world record to their name.

Not Kurtz.

Lovingly known as “Pastor Bob” to those in the Cullman area, the retired pastor was back to his mind-blowing ways at Chesley Oaks Golf Course in August.

The golfing “Iron Man” finished four rounds — 72 holes — in just over three hours and five minutes to collect his fourth Guinness World Record since 2011. Everything about the attempt, from the record itself to the Rodney Dangerfield impersonator on hand for the afternoon, coincided with the United States Golf Association’s “While We’re Young” campaign.

Kurtz picked up the pace and progressed with each round and completed his afternoon cards with 12 birdies, 33 pars, 22 bogeys, two double bogeys and two triple bogeys.

“It was so much fun out there,” Kurtz told The Times. “I just walked right up to it and hit it. The triumph of an uncluttered golf mind. God gave us a terrific day for us to come out here and do this thing.

“I think if we could have broken three hours, it would have set the golfing world on its ear. We really just missed it. This one probably ranks in the top two for the record I’ve broken, though.”

For a man like Kurtz, it’s only a matter of time before he’s out there breaking another record for his charitable causes.

“It’s a double joy. My two passions are golfing and helping my charity,” he said of Ministry to Children. “You can’t ask for anything more than that.”
