The Marian University Athletics Wall of Fame was established in 1996 to confer lasting recognition upon those individuals and teams who have made exceptional contributions to the prestige and honor of Marian University both on and off the field of competition.

Each of the inductees has established a tradition of excellence that is worthy of special recognition. From the inception of intercollegiate athletics at Marian, to the present, none have better exemplified the true spirit of athletic competition than these players, coaches, administrators, and other honored individuals.

The inductees have also demonstrated in their personal lives, the enduring values of sportsmanship, leadership, teamwork, and personal integrity learned, at least in part, from participation in intercollegiate athletic competition.

The Wall of Fame is also intended to serve as motivation and a reminder for current student-athletes to strive for excellence in their athletic endeavors while representing Marian University. The Wall itself will serve as a daily visual reminder to present day athletes that others who preceded them have represented the Marian University community in an exceptional fashion.
