The Hall of Fame banquet honoring these individuals will take place with a program and luncheon beginning at 11 a.m. on Saturday, January 30, at Pilot Project Brewing Milwaukee (1128 N. 9th Street). Any questions can be directed to Zach Beaschler, Director – Panther Fund, at beaschle@uwm.edu.
 
Kane established herself as one of the premier goalkeepers in Milwaukee women's soccer history during a four-year career from 2005-08, starting all 85 games of her collegiate career while finishing with a 55-16-13 record, 45 shutouts, 248 saves and a 0.66 career goals-against average.
 
Kane made an immediate impact as a freshman in 2005, earning First-Team All-Horizon League and League Tournament MVP honors while also being named a Soccer America Freshman All-American. She helped lead Milwaukee to the Horizon League Tournament championship and an NCAA Tournament victory over Purdue, making four penalty-kick saves during the Panthers' back-to-back postseason shootout victories. Her 717:10 shutout streak ranked as the 14th-longest in NCAA Division I history at the time, while her 13 shutouts tied the school and league records.
 
Kane continued her dominance as a sophomore, earning another First-Team All-Horizon League selection and Soccer Buzz All-Region Second-Team honors. She finished eighth nationally with a 0.486 goals-against average, tied her own school and league record with 13 shutouts and set school and league marks for goals-against average. She also recorded a double-overtime shutout of Michigan in the NCAA Tournament.
 
As a junior and senior, Kane remained a First-Team All-Horizon League selection and earned NSCAA Scholar All-American recognition in both seasons. She broke Milwaukee's career records for goalkeeper wins and minutes played. Kane's final season included NSCAA All-Region Second-Team, Soccer Buzz All-Region Third-Team and All-Horizon League First-Team honors. She recorded nine shutouts and helped Milwaukee post a 18-win campaign.
 
When her Milwaukee career concluded, Kane ranked among the program's all-time leaders in virtually every major goalkeeping category, including starts, wins, shutouts, saves, goals-against average and minutes played. She finished with a career 0.66 goals-against average and .810 save percentage while helping the Panthers to 55 victories and 45 shutouts in her 85 starts.
 
Doffek's name is synonymous with Milwaukee baseball, as he spent nearly three decades with the program, including 12 seasons as an assistant coach before taking over as head coach in 2007.
 
He finished his head-coaching career with a school-record 413 victories, including 215  of those in Horizon League play. His teams advanced to the NCAA Tournament four times and captured three regular-season conference championships during his tenure.
 
Doffek was twice named Horizon League Coach of the Year and was the 2013 Wisconsin Baseball Coaches Association College Coach of the Year. His tenure included a memorable 2010 campaign that saw the Panthers win the Horizon League Tournament championship and advance to the NCAA Tournament, as well as the 2013 regular-season league championship.
 
The 2015 Panthers matched a program record with 39 victories, while also setting school marks for team strikeouts and stolen bases and earning three selections in the Major League Baseball Draft. Doffek's teams produced 24 MLB Draft selections and 48 players who were either drafted or signed by professional organizations.
 
Under Doffek, Milwaukee players earned four All-America selections, 12 All-Region honors, five conference Player of the Year awards, eight conference Pitcher/Reliever of the Year honors, eight Newcomer of the Year awards, 66 First-Team All-Horizon League selections and 70 Second-Team selections.
 
Doffek's impact on Milwaukee baseball extended well beyond his head-coaching record. Before taking over the program, he helped guide the Panthers to their first NCAA Tournament appearance in 1999, including the historic upset of No. 1 Rice. He also spent five seasons in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization from 1989-93, reaching the Triple-A level with the Albuquerque Dukes.
 
Soule established herself as one of the most accomplished players in Milwaukee women's tennis history during a three-year career from 2010-13, finishing as the program's all-time leader in singles victories, doubles victories and total wins at the time of her graduation.
 
Soule earned First-Team All-Horizon League honors in all three seasons with the Panthers, starting by being named Horizon League Newcomer of the Year in 2010-11 after transferring into the program following one season at the University of Montana. She recorded 71 singles victories and 69 doubles wins during her career, finishing with 140 total victories and a .687 overall winning percentage. Her career singles winning percentage of .689 and doubles winning percentage of .683 ranked among the best in program history.
 
Her final two seasons featured some of the finest individual campaigns in Milwaukee tennis history. Soule won 25 singles matches in 2011-12, tying the program's single-season record, before following with 22 singles victories and a school-record 29 doubles wins in 2012-13. She finished her senior season with 51 combined singles and doubles victories, still the highest single-season total in program history, after recording 49 total wins the previous year. Her 29 doubles victories in 2012-13 also tied the program record, while her .823 doubles winning percentage that season remains among the best in school history.
 
Soule's impact on the program extended beyond her playing career. After completing her collegiate career, she joined the Milwaukee coaching staff and later returned to lead the Panthers as head coach during the 2014-15 season. More recently, she is once again a member of the staff, serving as an assistant since 2023 for her husband, current MKE tennis coach Mark Goldin.
 
The Class of 2026 represents three individuals whose accomplishments helped shape the history of Milwaukee Athletics, from championship teams and record-setting performances wearing the Black & Gold to success on the national and professional stages.
