PROVO, Utah (Oct. 10, 2007) Brigham Young University will induct four former All-Americans and a national hall of fame coach into the BYU Athletic Hall of Fame on Friday, Oct. 19 at 7 p.m.
Former NFL All-Pro tight end Chad Lewis along with Bruce Kleege (tennis), Cathy Nixon (basketball), Tea Nieminen (volleyball) and Gary Pullins (baseball coach) will be inducted during a ceremony hosted by the Cougar Club in the Cougar Room at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
The five inductees will also be honored during a special halftime presentation at the BYU vs. Eastern Washington game on Saturday.
