The rich athletic history of this year’s inductees and their predecessors is now on display in the newly-renovated Sports Hall of Fame (photo, below). The 12-month, $200,000 upgrade houses key moments in Canisius’ athletic history, along with championship rings presented to conference- winning teams and refurbished inductee plaques, now displayed by induction year.

The Sports Hall of Fame renovation was made possible through generous contributions to the Canisius Blue & Gold Fund
