Mines Athletics Hall of Fame
The Colorado School of Mines Athletics Hall of Fame is an effort to recognize former athletes, coaches, contributors, and others associated with Mines Athletics, as well as outstanding teams, individual accomplishments, and historic events. These inductees have distinguished themselves in the field of athletics, either by virtue of their performance in competition, or through their outstanding contributions on behalf of Mines Athletics.
A permanent display of Hall of Fame inductees is located in the upper concourse of the Student Recreation Center outside of Lockridge Arena.
