Four former student athletes were added to the roll of the South Atlantic Conference’s Hall of Fame, and I had the honor of being selected to photograph the induction banquet again this year. As a proud alumnus of one of the SAC member institutions (and an employee of that same institution in the other half of my working life), I enjoy getting to play my small part in the event. This year’s banquet was at the new Hilton Asheville Biltmore Park.
This year’s inductees are (left to right in the photo below): Heath Bost of Catawba College, William “D.D.” Boyd of Newberry College, Ron Ladimir of Wingate University, and James Barber of your Mars Hill College fightin’ Lions (if that’s any hint as to which institution has my allegiance).
James Barber of Mars Hill College receives his Hall of Fame plaque from MHC President Dan Lunsford.
Heath Bost of Catawba College receives his Hall of Fame plaque from Senior VP Tom Childress.
William “D.D.” Boyd of Newberry College receives his Hall of Fame plaque from Senior Vice President Brad Edwards.
Ron Ladimir of Wingate University receives his Hall of Fame plaque from President Jerry McGee.
The evening also provided an opportunity to get new portraits of Assistant Commissioner Eliane Kibbe and Commissioner Patrick Britz.
