Njcaa Region 16 Hall of Fame

NJCAA REGION 16 HALL OF FAME

Since the founding of the National Junior College Athletic Association in 1938, institutions from Region 16 in the state of Missouri started competing in two year intercollegiate athletics. Some of the first junior college institutions in the state have since converted to four year schools, but now there are nineteen schools participating in intercollegiate athletics at the NJCAA level. These member institutions and their athletic departments possess a wealth of historical milestones and accomplishments from individual players, teams, coaches, athletic administrators and contributors. To determine which individuals belong in the NJCAA Region 16 Hall of Fame, a set of criteria has been developed and agreed upon by the athletic administrators from each of the member institutions in the selection process.
