Hall of Fame

Trine University Athletic Hall of Fame
Trine University has a long tradition of excellence in athletics. From the football club and men's and women's basketball teams that competed at the turn of the last century, to the 21 intercollegiate men's and women's teams today, the Thunder has enjoyed success in competition. Although the emphasis is ever on the team accomplishments, individual performances have risen to a level that must be recognized. The Trine University Hall of Fame honors the best of the best Thunder athletes.
