It is also intended to enhance school tradition by honoring those people who have exhibited exceptional ability or given distinctive recognition to the UW-Oshkosh athletics program while on campus or since graduation.
The first UW-Oshkosh Athletics Hall of Fame induction ceremony was held April 28, 1974, at The Pioneer Inn & Marina. The five inductees were Edward Boguski, Ed Hall, Burton Karges, Robert Kolf and Robert Williams. Four venues have hosted the UW-Oshkosh Athletics Hall of Fame induction ceremony – The Pioneer Inn & Marina (1974-2001), Hilton Garden Inn (2002), UW-Oshkosh's Reeve Memorial Union (2003-13) and UW-Oshkosh's Culver Family Welcome Center (2014-Present). The UW-Oshkosh Hall of Fame inducts new members each fall in UW-Oshkosh's Alumni Welcome & Conference Center. Any former athlete, coach or individual who has made a recognizable contribution to the UW-Oshkosh athletic program is eligible for nomination. Athletes must have graduated and completed competition ten years or more prior to consideration. Past UW-Oshkosh coaches and athletic administrators may also be nominated. Deceased nominees will also be considered. Nominations should be sent to UW-Oshkosh Retired Sports Information Director Kennan Timm. UW-Oshkosh Hall of Fame Members |
