| "I invite you to join me in honoring three outstanding coaches that have defined athletic excellence at Oakland University for over a quarter century. The impact they have had on this campus, their respective sports and the lives of countless student athletes is immeasurable. I can't think of a more appropriate way to perpetuate their legacy than through support of a scholarship fund to support future student athletes. We look forward to honoring them at the event and invite everyone who has been a part of the Oakland family to join us." Tracy Huth, Director of Athletics
