A lasting legacy

The visionaries behind the victories, the coaches inspiring the champions, the administrators turning beliefs into blueprints, and the Sun Devils who poured heart, soul, and years of dedication into making ASU more than a place to play but a powerhouse of pride, tradition, and excellence, on and off the field. 

Since its inception in 1982, the Hall of Distinction has celebrated the relentless leaders, visionaries, mentors, and difference-makers whose passion and purpose set the tone of Sun Devil Athletics. 

Inductees are chosen by a committee of university leaders who recognize what actual impact looks like, not just in victories but in values. Those enshrined in the Hall of Distinction didn’t just shape programs. They shaped people, generations, and the identity of Sun Devil Nation.

This is where leadership is honored. This is where legacies live. This is the Hall of Distinction.
