Athletics Hall of Honor
The Austin College Athletics Hall of Honor recognizes the men and women who have represented the department and College at a high level on the field of play during their time as a student-athlete. Honorary members have also been recognized throughout the years for their positive impact on the student-athletes and programs as a coach, administrator, or professor. Austin College Athletics also recognizes exemplary lifetime achievement in coaching and athletic administration of its alumni and staff members through the Joe Spencer Award and annual success of alumni coaches of a men’s and women’s sport through the Kedric Couch Alumni Coach of the Year award. Recipients are recognized each year at our annual Legends Weekend and nominations may be made for the Hall of Honor and Joe Spencer Award here.
