Diablo Valley College Athletics Hall of Fame Yearbook

DIABLO VALLEY COLLEGE ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME The Hall of Fame was founded in 2005 by Steve Ward (Athletic Director at that time) and got off the ground because of a generous $5,000 donation by Russ & Carolyn Anderson (Lehmer’s Pontiac/GMC of Concord). Since that time, numerous individuals and businesses have given generously which has made this an annual February event. The entire HOF Executive Committee would like to thank all who have donated in the past, which enables us to honor and remember the rich tradition of Intercollegiate Athletics at Diablo Valley College (formerly East Contra Costa College). Four display cases in the Physical Education building are solely designated to the Hall of Fame and many artifacts are on display year-round.

Special thanks go out to Cindy Goga (DVC Foundation Director), Glen Abrams of Devil’s Mountain Awards and the entire Norseman Restaurant Staff & DVC students.
