Creighton Athletic Hall of Fame

Additional Information

Hall of Fame

The Creighton University Athletic Hall of Fame started in 1968 with the induction of Bluejay basketball and baseball great Bob Gibson, who played at CU from 1954-57 and went on to a Major League Baseball Hall of Fame career with the St. Louis Cardinals. Since then, 80 other outstanding individuals have also been so honored.

To be nominated, a recipient must, as a rule, be a graduate of Creighton University and should manifest such qualities in his or her personal life that mark him or her as a successful person of high moral principles. Ordinarily, a recipient should be out of school for five years and must have demonstrated a truly outstanding and consistent performance on a varsity team over a period of at least two years with constant manifestation of good sportsmanship and field leadership while a member of the squad. A recipient may be presented posthumously and a recipient who did not compete on a varsity team may be selected on the basis of his or her significant contribution to the athletic program at Creighton University.
