September 11, 2009 | General
WEST POINT, N.Y. – ITT Knight Vision, the expanded multi-media arm of the Army Athletic Association, will broadcast Friday’s Army Sports Hall of Fame Induction Banquet, live from Eisenhower Hall, free of charge.
Senior Associate Athletic Director Bob Beretta and Director of Broadcasting and Multi-Media Rich DeMarco will serve as hosts as Army honors the Class of 2009.
Video of the event is available at www.goARMYsports.com.
This year marks the sixth class to be enshrined into the Army Sports Hall of Fame and ITT Knight Vision will take viewers inside the event. Eight individuals are being honored this weekend with events that include introduction at the football game Saturday against Duke, an unveiling ceremony Friday and the “black-tie” dinner.
The Class of 2009 encompasses nine sports and the second administrator to earn distinction in the Hall of Fame. Among the many accomplishments of the group are three Army Athletic Association Award winners, inductees into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame and the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame, an athletic director that retired with the rank of Major General, a three-time Patriot League Player of the Year, a five-time All-American and a three-time All-American selection.
The group is comprised of former men’s basketball player and coach Mike Krzyzewski, Bill Carpenter (football and lacrosse), Ralph Chesnauskas (football, hockey and baseball), Tracy Hanlon (track and field and women’s basketball), Ray Murphy (Athletic Director, lacrosse, basketball, football), Nicki Robbins (softball), Jack Rust (lacrosse) and Thomas Truxtun (lacrosse and men’s soccer).
Best-selling author John Feinstein is serving as the master of ceremonies. ITT Knight Vision will carry the opening remarks from Superintendent Lt. Gen. Franklin K. Hagenbeck, video highlights, plaque presentations, remarks from Director of Athletics Kevin Anderson, the class acceptance speech from Krzyzewski as well as interviews with the inductees.
The Army Sports Hall of Fame is a subset of the Kenna Hall of Army Sports, a comprehensive museum displaying Army’s rich and proud intercollegiate athletic program. It is located on the third floor of the Kimsey Athletic Center, Army’s massive football training facility that opened four years ago.
