Liberty Athletics Hall of Fame
Liberty Athletics is set to enshrine six new members into the Athletics Hall of Fame on Friday, Oct. 9, and members of Flames Nation will be able to watch the ceremony.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, social distancing requirements and space limitations, the awards banquet will be limited to the six-member Athletics Hall of Fame class, the inductees' families, current Athletics Hall of Fame members, the Athletics Hall of Fame committee and select university officials.
Because the event will not be open to the general public this year, Liberty Athletics will hold a live stream of the awards ceremony that will begin around 7:45 p.m. during the Friday, Oct. 9 ceremony.
A link to the free video stream will be posted on the athletics website and the Liberty Flames social media accounts closer to the awards banquet.
