Hall of Fame
The Virginia Tech Sports Hall of Fame was established in 1982 to honor and preserve the memory of athletes, coaches, administrators and staff members who have made outstanding contributions to athletics at the university. The individuals selected are inducted to the Hall of Fame during special annual ceremonies held each fall. Hall of Fame plaques engraved with portraits of all the members are displayed in the south end of the Cassell Coliseum ambulatory. Under Tech Hall of Fame guidelines, persons are not eligible for induction until they have been out of school for a period of 10 years. Following is a list of the inductees.
