CU Athletic Hall of Fame Induction on Nov. 9

Steve Hatchell's legendary sports administration career makes him a natural candidate for induction into the CU Athletic Hall of Fame.

Hatchell is the only inductee in this class to have never suited up for the Buffs in an athletic event. His illustrious career took root as the football team manager for the Buffs in the late 1960s, undertaking typical team manager responsibilities such as doing laundry and polishing helmets while earning his degree in Journalism (1970).
