In a ceremony in the Cougar Room at LaVell Edwards Stadium at 7 p.m., former NFL All-Pro tight end Chad Lewis, Bruce Kleege (tennis), Cathy Nixon (basketball), Tea Nieminen (volleyball) and Gary Pullins (baseball) will be honored. They will also be recognized during BYU's game against Eastern Washington on Saturday.
More than 150 athletes, coaches and administrators have been inducted into the BYU Athletic Hall of Fame since its inception in 1975. Among the criteria to be considered are All-American status, university graduation, professional accomplishments and community service.
