"We are excited to collect this year's nominations as we continue to add to the impressive group of men and women who represent Bowling Green Athletics for their storied achievements."
Â
BGSU's Athletics Hall of Fame exists to recognize Bowling Green State University's former student-athletes, teams, coaches, administrators, and special inductees who have distinguished both themselves and the University through their measurable achievements, commitment to excellence, and their dedication to advancing the rich history, tradition and legacy of Falcon Athletics.
