The
Baldwin
Wallace
Athletics
Hall
of
Fame
grew
by
14
distinguished
Yellow
Jacket
athletes
with
the
formal
induction
of
both
the
2020
and
2021
honorees
over
the
weekend.
The BW Athletics Department, Center for Philanthropy and Alumni Engagement and the Brown and Gold Club host the awards annually. However, 2020 inductees, who were initially announced and honored in a virtual ceremony, got the full treatment along with the 2021 inductees.
The
inductees
were
introduced
at
halftime
of
BW's
comeback
win
over
Marietta
and
enjoyed
a
lunch
in
their
honor.
The BW Athletics Alumni Association Hall of Fame was created in 1965 to recognize exceptional achievements and impact on the Brown & Gold by an athlete, administrator or coach, team or honorary. The newest inductees bring the total number of Yellow Jacket athletes in the Hall to 360.
The Hall of Fame Selection Committee considers nominations in four categories (Athlete, Coach/Administrator, Team or Honorary), based upon accomplishments during the nominee's time at BW, or in some circumstances, significant recognition for athletics achievement outside of BW.
Nominations are accepted on a rolling basis, and selection is determined each spring.
