LIU Athletics Hall of Fame The Long Island University Athletics Hall of Fame was established in 2000. In total, 44 individuals have been enshrined, including 20 with ties to the men’s

Book basketball team, which is the most represented team in the Hall.

“This institution has one of the longest and proudest traditions of excellence that is unparalleled by most universities in the country,” director of athletics John Record Suarez noted in February of 2000. “We believed it was time to recognize those who have given so much to Blackbirds athletics.”

The members are chosen from a committee comprised of current and former administrators. The inductees receive a replica placque of the permanent version which is displayed on the Wall of Fame, located in Founders Hall, adjacent to the Arnold & Marie Schwartz Athletic Center.

He helped LIU to its fi rst undefeated season in 1935-36 (25-0) and was then part of the 1936-37 team that set the school- record for wins with 28. As a senior in 1937-38, he served as team captain on a team that went 25-3 and advanced to the National Invitation Tournament. Hillhouse went on to enjoy a three-year professional career with the Philadelphia Warriors from 1946-48.

The 1967-68 men’s basketball team enjoyed one of the most successful seasons in the Blackbirds’ storied history. The team raced out to a 20-0 start and climbed to the No. 1 small college ranking by both the Associated Press and United Press International. The Blackbirds dropped a late-season contest to Saint Peter’s, but still earned an invitation to the NIT. Under the guidance of head coach Roy Rubin and led by All-Americans Larry Newbold and Luther Green, the Blackbirds defeated Bradley, 80-77, in the opening round before dropping a 62-60 decision to Notre Dame in the quarterfi nals. The Blackbirds fi nished the season with a 22-2 record and are the last LIU basketball team to win a game in a national postseason tournament.
