4.28.07 TEN INDUCTED INTO INAUGURAL WALL OF FAME

Ten former Crusader players were inducted into the inaugural Wall of Fame on Saturday. They included current Lady 'Sader head coach Danny Owens ('00), former Mr. Carey and Student President Justin Maullin ('97), all-time leading points scorer Phil Hindson ('99) and Andrew Barron ('04). Maullin is the assistant coach at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, Hindson is the assistant at powerhouse Clemson University while Barron is currently playing professionally in New Zealand. Other inductees were former Crusader assistant coach Oleg Chickanov (96) who was an All-American at Carey, All-American Oleg Baleev (97) now the head coach at Jones Junior College and All-American Marco Mthembu (97) who played professionally in South Africa and was called up to that countries national team. Former 'keeper and All-American Mark Spears (01), two time All-American Milton Griffiths (98), and Guatemalan National Team player Eric Diaz (05) round out the first ten inaugural inductees. The WOF luncheon was well attended and WCU President Tommy King was in attendance. The Alumni game was played in a competitive nature with the 'old guard' taking the lead before fitness told and the current Crusader squad ran out 4-2 winners. Later that evening the alumni and family gathered at Coach Owens home for a traditional southern crawfish boil.
