Born in 1987, UNLV's Athletic Hall of Fame will grow to 85 members strong this fall when the Class of 2006 is inducted. The class is made up of former teammates Chris Riley and Chad Campbell (golf), Cyndi Parus (softball), Roger Pettersson (tennis), Trevaia Williams (track & field), the 1989-90 Lady Rebel basketball team and distinguished contributor Mel Wolzinger.
The diverse group will be inducted at ceremonies on October 13 at the South Coast Hotel. Tickets ($110 per person) can be reserved now by calling Kara Jefferies at (702) 895-3678. Tables of 10 and sponsorship opportunities are also available. Ceremonies begin with cocktails at 6 p.m., followed by dinner at 7 p.m. and program to follow.
Under the hall's bylaws, former student-athletes must have completed their eligibility at least 10 years earlier to be selected. Coaches and administrators must have stopped working at the University five years previous. Classes now enter on a biennial basis.
