The Lewis University Department of Athletics is now accepting nominations for both the 2027 Lewis Athletics Hall of Fame and Academy of Coaches.

The Lewis Athletics Hall of Fame was established in 1980. The purpose is to provide lasting recognition to those individuals and teams who have brought honor and prestige to the Lewis University Department of Athletics.  Nominees must be individuals and/or teams who have brought honor and prestige to the Lewis University Department of Athletics by their excellence in sports competition, notable career accomplishments, exemplary contributions to the betterment of humanity, and/or other unique and significant service to the athletics program throughout one's lifetime.

Special recognition may be granted where it is deemed appropriate by the selection committee and special circumstances prevail. High standards of athletic-related performance, personal conduct and/or selfless support of the athletics program throughout one's lifetime, should guide the selection committee in considering any individual or team for membership in the Lewis Athletics Hall of Fame.
