The Nanook Hall of Fame's Class of 2010 will be inducted this Saturday, Sept. 25 at 10:30 a.m. in at the Carol Brown Ballroom in the Wood Center on the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus.

Tickets to the induction brunch are $30 per person and may be purchased at the UAF Athletics ticket office from 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday as well as 8:30 am. to 4 p.m. Friday, Sept. 24.

This year’s class, which was announced in mid-July, includes former athletic director John C. Gilmore, former vice chancellor of student affairs Harris Shelton, and former student-athletes Sigrid Aas (women's skiing and cross country), Mallory (Bergstrom) Larranaga (women's volleyball), Melissa Mulloy-Mecozzi (rifle), and Stuart Watkins (rifle).

Six plaques, featuring the inductees' individual picture and accomplishments, will be placed into the Nanook Hall of Fame display case at the Patty Center in time for the Nanooks' volleyball match at 7 p.m. against Simon Fraser. All six class members will be presented with a replica plaque at the induction brunch on Saturday morning and recognized twice with their plaques at both of the Alaska Nanooks home events later in the day: first at the Blue vs. Gold hockey game at 5 p.m. at the Patty Ice Arena and then the volleyball match that follows.
