BOULDER — The 14th class that will be inducted into the University of Colorado Athletic Hall of Fame this November 8 will feature 11 Golden Buffalo legends who are representative of five different sports across eight decades in the school's history, all of whom have their special place in history created during their CU athletic careers.
The 11, one of whom will be honored posthumously, cover the 1920s through this decade, with two of the group also in coaching and administration. Spanning the group are six who lettered in football, with one a three-sport star, another serving as an assistant coach and a third a long-time administrator; the school's lone player who went on to win a World Series ring; two star basketball performers in the 1960s; CU's first nationally recognized female sprinter in track; and the most successful female skier in school history, who will be the first woman inducted in the sport that has captured 20 national championships.
