GRAND RAPIDS – Former Central Michigan standout Chris Kaman will be inducted into the Grand Rapids Sports Hall of Fame.

The hall announced its 2018 class of inductees on Friday. The date of the induction ceremony will be announced later.

Kaman, who prepped at Tri-Unity Christian High School in Wyoming, is one of Central Michigan’s all-time greats, earning the Mid-American Conference Player of the Year and All-America honors in 2003, when he led the Chippewas to the MAC regular-season and tournament championships, and an NCAA Tournament berth.

He was named the MAC Tournament MVP that year and the 11th-seeded Chippewas upset sixth-seeded Creighton, 79-73, in a first-round NCAA Tourney game.
