Athletics Introduces Mountaineer Legends Society

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. –The West Virginia University Department of Intercollegiate Athletics will introduce the Mountaineer Legends Society this fall at Milan Puskar Stadium, and it will serve as one of three ways the department can use to honor its past great student-athletes.

The WVU Sports Hall of Fame will serve as the first honor to recognize greatness in Mountaineer athletics. A former student-athlete must first be inducted into the WVU Sports Hall of Fame to be considered for the next step of recognition.

After induction into the WVU Sports Hall of Fame, the second step to honor Mountaineer greatness will be with a Legends Society distinction, if the student-athlete meets the criteria for his or her sport.
