More than 50 years as a conference can create quite a pool of worthy candidates for a new Hall of Fame.
The MIVA recently announced that it established the MIVA Hall of Fame with the inaugural class scheduled to be inducted later this year. Below is a list of all the players, coaches and contributors who have a case for Hall of Fame consideration based on their multiple First-Team All-MIVA selections, MIVA Player of the Year honors or additional outstanding performances.
Fans can submit their MIVA Hall of Fame nominations online at the conference’s website before the Tuesday deadline. To fill out the online nomination form for a player, coach or contributor, click here.
