Inside Bulldog Athletics
Hall of Fame
The University of Minnesota Duluth Athletic Hall of Fame was established in 1991 and enshrined its charter class exactly 61 years to the day after the first Bulldog varsity athletic event took place (a football game at Northland College on Sept. 20, 1930). It now consists of 94 distinguished members.
These individuals, who have played an integral part in the development and maintenance of the rich Bulldog athletic tradition, are recognized with plaques in the UMD Sports and Health Center complex.
The 2010 UMD Athletic Hall of Fame Banquet is set for Oct. 8 and will include the induction of five individuals -- Bob Davidson (baseball), Bill Halbrehder (hockey), Tom Milani (hockey), Lynn Stottler (cross country and track) and Dave Viaene (football and wrestling). Tickets for the event, which is open to the public, can be purchased by calling (218) 726-8168.
To make a nomination for the UMD Athletic Hall of Fame, please e-mail committee co-chair Bob Nygaard with a supporting letter and candidate information.
