Years before USF actually had an Athletics Hall of Fame, one of the highlights for anyone perusing the wall of USF All-Americans in the main athletic facility was stumbling upon the head shot of soccer standout Fergus Hopper, left. So while there is no shortage of familiar names in the third class for USF's Athletic Hall of Fame -- the first football inductee in defensive back Anthony Henry, basketball's Radenko Dobras, volleyball standout Michelle Collier, current softball assistant Monica Triner -- I'm intrigued to meet Hopper and learn his story.

USF's official site has a good writeup on the new class, announced during Saturday's BullsFest event, so I'll defer to a link to their story. We'll have a lot more on the inductees in advance of their enshrinement this fall.
