On Thursday, over 20 student-athletes joined with alumni and the DU community to induct four individuals and the 1957-58 hockey team into the University of Denver Athletic Hall of Fame to kick off Homecoming weekend.

As the Denver Spirit Squad welcomed DU alumni, the Pioneer Pep Band played the fight song and DU's student-athletes and coaches, old and new, gathered to honor Denver's athletic program.

The event was held at the Westin Tabor Center downtown.

"It's a great honor to be a part of the Hall of Fame ceremony," senior swimmer and Student Athlete Advisory Council member Blake Worsley said. "It's exciting to see all these people getting inducted. They serve as role models to me. All of the athletes obviously dream of being in the Hall of Fame, so it's nice to be a part of this beforehand." [read rest of article]
