The University of Saint Joseph will honor its inaugural Hall of Fame class at a May 11, 2013 dinner at the O’Connell Center. UConn women’s basketball coach Geno Auriemma will be a guest speaker.

The Hall of Fame will honor past athletes, coaches and special contributors who had an impact on the school’s athletic program.

The dinner will come at the conclusion of the school’s 20^th year of intercollegiate athletics affiliated with the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association). Nominations, however, will not be limited to the past 20 years and can include those who distinguished themselves in prior intramural and club competitions.
