Kim Schmidt was a standout in both softball and women's volleyball for UNH from 1984-88. As a catcher in softball, Schmidt was a four-time all-conference selection and earned all-region honors as a senior. Kim earned First Team All-NECC honors three times and was a Second Team pick as a junior. Schmidt hit .388 as a sophomore and .333 overall, logging 70 RBIs and scoring 82 runs in 163 games. She still ranks among the program's all-time leaders in at bats (10th, 511) and is the program's career leader with 15 triples. She helped lead the team to a 97-66 record and three ECAC playoff appearances in her four seasons (1985-88).

The Wallingford, Conn. native was a defensive specialist for the women's volleyball team, playing three seasons (1984-86) under then-head coach Deborah Chin. Schmidt helped UNH to a combined 107-21 record during that time for an astounding .836 winning percentage, playing in the back row as the Chargers made a pair of NCAA Elite Eight appearances and one Sweet Sixteen berth.
