The ceremony will include a dinner honoring the six inductees and a reunion for lettermen in all ACU sports in the Hunter Welcome Center. Ceremony and reunion attendees are also invited to stay for a fireworks show at 10 p.m. on the east side of the Welcome Center, according to a press release by Lance Fleming.

New members are former football player Jim Reese, former golf coach Vince Jarrett, former athletics trainer Wes Speights and former track athletes Delloreen Ennis-London and Tracey Barnes. Dr. Jerry Strader will also be inducted and given the 17th Lifetime Achievement Award in Hall of Fame history, Murphy said.

Former men’s basketball letterman Sam Maroney will also be featured at the ceremony as the recipient of the Womack Award, given to former athletes who have excelled in their sport and in the classroom. This is the third time the award has been given.
