The West Virginia University Athletic Hall of Fame was instituted in 1991 to recognize those athletes that have helped pioneer WVU athletics into one of the most respected programs in the nation. The initial group of inductees were selected from six different time periods; former athletes, coaches and administrators are eligible for selection 10 years following their association with WVU.
Since that initial induction class in 1991, more than 100 West Virginia University athletes and administrators have been enshrined including an induction class of six in 2008.
