Morgan State University Athletic Hall of Fame explained

This List of Morgan State University Athletic Hall of Fame is a list of inductees into the Athletic Hall of Fame at Morgan State University.

History

Initially established in 1959 by the Morgan State University Athletic Department, all nominations and inductions are now overseen by the Morgan State University Varsity "M" Club.

Selection process

The Hall of Fame is an association of those athletes who attended Morgan State University, were nominated, and then selected for Hall of Fame recognition. Nominations cannot be considered until at least 10 years have passed since the applicant's graduation or exit from the university. Student-athlete nominees must have been a record holder or an outstanding performer while at the university and in good academic standing.[1]

Induction ceremony

Finalists are inducted at an Annual Hall of Fame Induction luncheon during the Fall of each academic year.[2] Inductees are honored at half-time ceremonies during the Morgan State University football homecoming game and a commemorative plaque is place in the Hall of Fame.[3]

Facility

The Morgan State University Athletic Hall of Fame is located in the Talmadge Marse Hill Fieldhouse on the campus of Morgan State University.
