Spirits ran high in the Sheldon Hall Ballroom as five alumni-athletes reminisced about their days in Laker green and gold during the 2023 Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Dinner and Ceremony, with their family, friends and former teammates applauding from the “sidelines.” However, instead of wearing their Laker jerseys, they were dressed to impress.

Current Oswego State Field Hockey members Erin Schaefer ’24 and Abigail Redmond ’24 served as the co-emcees of the evening and bridged today’s Laker athletics to the historic greats of its past.

The university officially inducted women’s volleyball and track and field athlete Heidi Armstrong ’08, basketball player Chad Burridge ’12, baseball player Andrew Clapp ’96, swimming and diving member Kevin Morgan ’08, women’s basketball and field hockey player Robyn Bramoff Mott ’04 and ice hockey member Jon Whitelaw ’13 M’18, who was unable to attend the event.

“This year’s honorees represent some of the best athletes in Oswego State’s long athletic history,” said Stephanie Lamb Folds ’07, then senior associate director of alumni engagement. “We are honored to recognize them today.”

SUNY Oswego’s Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Wendy McManus took a moment to recognize all former and current coaches as well as current student-athletes who attended the event. McManus also gave a warm thank you to the members of the selection committee.
