Hall of Fame

The University of Northern Colorado Athletic Hall of Fame was established in 1994 to recognize former UNC athletes, faculty and staff members, and others associated with the University of Northern Colorado, who have distinguished themselves in the field of athletics -- either by virtue of their performance on the athletic teams, representing the university, or by outstanding contributions on behalf of athletics. 

The 2024 Hall of Fame Class has embodied the principles of what it means to be a Bear. We are excited to be able to induct this class and officially welcome them into the UNC Athletics Hall of Fame. The celebration will be held Friday, September 13 to recognize the outstanding accomplishments of these individuals at the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.
