Cougar Wall Of Fame
The Cougar Wall of Fame was initiated during the 1993-1994 school year by the Cougar Sports Associates (CSA) to honor former Mount Vernon Nazarene University athletes and coaches. Each year, CSA members have the opportunity to nominate deserving individuals for this award. After the nominations are compiled, all CSA members have the opportunity to select the inductees by casting their votes on a ballot sent out by the CSA steering committee.
