DETROIT (11/8/2019) -- The University of Detroit Mercy Athletic Department's 2020 Hall-Of-Fame class was announced today with 15 Titan greats spanning 10 programs earning the athletic distinction.
The class includes the first-ever Hall-Of-Fame selections in the sports of women's golf and lacrosse, the honoring of two tremendous football players, academic and athletic standouts in fencing, track and field, baseball, soccer and softball and six stars on the hardwood.
"The pedigree of this class is simply outstanding and amazing," said Director of Athletics Robert C. Vowels, Jr. "From All-Americans in competition to Academic All-Americans, professional athletes and champions, the 15 selections show the class, character and true Titan qualities that we look for in all our student-athletes."
Detroit Mercy established its Sports Hall of Fame in 1977 in order to honor those student-athletes, coaches and administrators who have helped develop the successful tradition of Titan Athletics. With the class entering, the Titan Hall of Fame will now stand at 144 all-time greats.
The Hall-Of-Fame ceremony will take place on campus on January 24 and all the inductees will be honored again during the men's basketball game on January 25.
