Brandon University Dick and Verda McDonald Sports Wall of Fame
Bruce Gullett was a rugged, tougher than nails blue liner with the Brandon College Caps hockey team from 1961-1965.
Gullett's grit was displayed in full force on the gridiron for three seasons where he served as captain and played on both sides of the ball. His efforts earned him a prestigious spot on the All-Time College Cap/Bobcat football team.
He also excelled on the baseball field, representing Team Canada at the world championship in 1972 in Nicaragua. Gullett was a 12-time all-star in the Manitoba Senior Baseball League with the Riverside Canucks. He also managed the club for six years. In total, he was part of seven league titles, three provincial titles and a Western Canadian championship. Gullett was inducted into the Manitoba Baseball Hall of Fame in 2002.
Gullett officiated junior 'A' and senior hockey in Manitoba for 20 years and coached at various levels. He also served as minor sports president in Wawanesa, where he was born and raised.
Beyond athletics, Gullett is a cornerstone of the community in Wawanesa. He was a town councilor from 1997-2006 and served as mayor for eight years from 2006-2014.
