Purpose
It is the purpose of the Union University's Sports Hall of Fame to honor those who have combined individual and collective achievement with the ethics and Christian values that are imbedded in Union University's global mission. These achievements bring with them local and national recognition and promote institutional prestige. Union University's administration, faculty, staff, student body and alumni seeks to honor those individuals or teams who have made outstanding contributions and the community at large by formally recognizing them in Union University's Hall of Fame.
