SANTA ANA, CA - The sixth class of the Santa Ana College Athletic Hall of Fame was inducted on Sunday, October 5 in the courtyard of the Exercise Science Locker Room Complex. The Class of 2008 consists of Dave Alexander (wrestling), Fred Kuller (track & field), Joyce Lyman (softball) and Lester "Bus" McKnight (football).
Ed Arnold was the Master of Ceremonies as former inductees, friends and family gathered to honor the four inductees. Each member was introduced by a former teammate, coach or family member in the ceremony before addressing the audience personally.
The Santa Ana College Athletic Hall of Fame was established in 2003 to celebrate, recognize and honor the accomplishments of individuals who have made significant contributions as a student-athlete, coach or friend to the rich tradition of the Santa Ana College athletic program. In order to be eligible for induction, all athletes must have last competed at least five years prior to induction and coaches must have not coached for at least two years.
The Hall of Fame is an affiliate organization of the Santa Ana College Foundation and is dedicated to preserving the college's athletic history while providing new opportunities to transferring student-athletes through scholarships. |
