Former Missouri linebacker Sean Weatherspoon highlighted the list of athletes selected for induction into the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame, announced Monday.
The two-time second-team All-American and first round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft joins former baseball player Tim Laudner and four others in the 27th induction class, an honor dating back to the Hall’s inception in 1990.
Laudner, a Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, native and Tigers catcher from 1976-79, was instrumental in the Minnesota Twins’ 1987 World Series Championship run. He was also an American League All-Star in 1988.
Another selection, Rhea Taylor, helped lead the Missouri softball program to three-straight Women’s College World Series from 2009-11, while Columbia native and former gymnast Adrianne Perry was a two-time second-team All-American and four-time individual qualifier for the NCAA Championships from 2006-09.
