2019 Hall of Fame Honoree: Walt Bugler

Our second in a series honoring our 2019 Hall of Fame, today we would like to highlight San Francisco women's basketball's first-ever head coach, Walt Bugler. Formal induction ceremonies are scheduled for Friday, Feb. 22, at the Father Hubert "Hub" Flynn Hall of Fame Dinner in War Memorial at the Sobrato Center on the USF campus. The festivities will begin with a reception at 6:30 p.m., followed by the dinner program at 7:30 p.m. The inductees will also be honored at halftime of the USF-Gonzaga women's basketball game on Feb. 23.

The men's basketball program at the University of San Francisco already had a storied history that spanned decades when the mid-1970s rolled around.
