COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- Fans hoping to submit nominations for the
Tennessee Tech Sports Hall of Fame have just over a month before
the deadline. To be considered for 2013 induction, nominations must
be submitted by June 30 including all supporting material. No
additional material will be accepted after the deadline.
"Our Sports Hall of Fame currently includes more than 160 people,
and every year the committee looks through a long list of qualified
nominees," said Mark Wilson, Director of Athletics. "Many of those
nominations come from family members, friends, alumni or fans who
know of candidates who are worthy of consideration but may not yet
be nominated."
A couple of key criteria for former student-athletes to be inducted
into the Hall of Fame require that a period of 10 years must have
passed since the S-A completed his/her eligibility, and they must
have received an undergraduate degree.
Each nomination remains active for a period of three years. The
committee will meet later in the summer to select the 2013 nominees
who will be inducted during the annual Hall of Fame Dinner during
Homecoming weekend.
This year's dinner is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 25.
For additional information on submitting nominations, please
contact Amanda Thatcher at (931) 372-3949.
