0 min read

By CU Athletics: The precursor of CU’s Athletic Hall of Fame was the “Athletic Hall of Honor,” which debuted in 1967 until it was discontinued in 1987; this recognition was presented to a person who, while attending the University of Colorado, was awarded a Varsity “C” and attained distinguished achievement in his or her chosen field.

There were 65 members of the original Athletic Hall of Honor, the inaugural class including the likes of Byron White and Lee Willard.  Athletic director Rick George didn’t think twice when presented with the idea of restoring the honor, fully supporting its return which will now be incorporated as a wing into the department’s Hall of Fame.
