ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME

Our Athletic Hall of Fame was not conceived; It was created through years of effort by thousands of dedicated men and women who sought to achieve to the best of their physical capacity, while pursuing the development of their mental capabilities.

On the gridiron, the diamond, the court, the greensward, the track, the mat - the arena of intercollegiate competition - they sought to bring glory to their Alma Mater and to themselves.

For their dedications, hours of practice and years of training to bring their bodies to the peak of achievement, we offer our respect and our gratitude.  We recognize that their efforts in the brief moments of combat were the culmination of mountainous preparation and devotion.

They have enjoyed the sweet nectar of victory, and the bitter essence of agonizing defeat.  Their combined efforts have filled the record books for Muhlenberg College.  We salute them all.

Athletic Hall of Fame Awards are the highest athletic awards given by the Alumni Association.  They have been established in the following categories:

      • Members
