Milwaukee Athletics

Bucholz was one of the most dominant competitors in the history of the Milwaukee men's track & field program, appearing for the Panthers from 2007 to 2011. He capped his career at the NCAA Regional Championships in May of his senior year, putting a fitting end to a career that included a school-record 22 league individual and relay titles as well as helping lead the program to the Horizon League Championship as a team in both indoor and outdoor seasons all four years he competed – a perfect stretch of 8-for-8 in bringing home titles.
 
His 22 individual league crowns mark the most-ever for an MKE track & field athlete, as do his 24 All-Horizon League selections. As a senior, Bucholz reset the school 400m record twice and ran the second-fastest 200m in school history (21.13). He edged the school 400m for the first time by just 0.02 seconds and then eclipsed that mark by 0.40 seconds, resetting the school standard at 46.69. The Crystal, Minnesota, native won seven of the 11 individual events he entered, including league championships in both the 100m and 200m, putting the final touch on the program claiming both the indoor and outdoor league championships for the fourth straight year.
 
An NCAA regional qualifier in numerous events from 20017 through 2011, he established new school marks in the following events: 200m (21.13, also Horizon League record), 400m (46.69, also Horizon League record), 4x100 relay (40.66, also Horizon League record), 4x400 relay (3:09.32 MKE record/3:10.82 Horizon League mark), DMR (9:57.79 school record). He capped both his indoor and outdoor careers with three-straight league titles in the 200m and two 400m crowns.
 
Named the Horizon League Outdoor Athlete of the Year in 2010 and 2008, Bucholz also picked up 2007 Horizon League Newcomer of the Year honors and was named the 2010 UWM Pepsi Student-Athlete of the Year at the year-end awards banquet.
