SANTA ANA, CA - The seventh class of the Santa Ana College Athletic Hall of Fame was inducted on Sunday, October 4 in the courtyard of the Exercise Science Locker Room Complex.
The Class of 2009 consists of Sheryl Anderson (softball), Howard Brubaker (coach, cross country, track & field), George Curtis (athletic trainer), Rolf Engen (basketball), Doug Kimbell (swimming, water polo), Don Shuler (wrestling) and Ed Arnold.
Arnold, the master of ceremonies for the past six induction ceremonies, stepped back from the microphone to be honored for the charitable work he has done for the Santa Ana College athletic department. Local sportcaster Rick Mielke served as the guest Master of Ceremonies for the event.
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. |
