New Athletic Hall of Fame to recognize USI's Best

The charter class of inductees into the new USI Athletic Hall of Fame will be recognized
February 3 during homecoming festivities. Nominations are due October 7.

USI Director of Athletics Jon Mark Hall feels that after 36 years of sponsoring
intercollegiate athletics the time is right to establish a Hall of Fame.

"Athletics at USI has established a strong history," said Hall. The Hall of
Fame will be a mechanism to recognize and reconnect with those student
athletes, coaches, administrators, and supporters who created many
memorable moments.

"The Hall of Fame also will be a way to help our current student athletes
understand why we have such pride in our athletics program."

Any Eagles fan is eligible to nominate student athletes or teams on the 10th
anniversary of their last season of competition or a coach/administrator who
has been separated from the Department of Athletics for two years. Special
individuals (e.g., Varsity Club Special members) also are eligible for nomination.

The USI Athletic Hall of Fame selection committee will be appointed by USI
President H. Ray Hoops. It will include up to 10 individuals. The selection
committee will vote on nominees. A Hall of Fame class will have a minimum of
four student athletes and a maximum of one coach/administrator, special
individual or team.

Nomination forms are available online at www.usi.edu/sports/halloffame/
or by calling the Department of Athletics at 812/464-1846.
